Magnifico! Pacifico wins Whangarei Gold Cup Stayers’ Final
Ardrossan’s progressive son Pacifico delivered a commanding performance to take out the Whangarei Gold Cup Stayers’ Final at Ruakaka on Saturday, 28 June.

Bred and raced by the Carter family’s Jomara Bloodstock, Pacifico is the 10th foal out of the Montjeu mare Carib.
