Castalong Shadow was advertised for less than $5,000 as an un-named weanling. He is by a sub $5k service fee sire - Shadow Play.

Geoffrey owned, trained and drove Castalong to win the coveted Bathurst Gold Crown (Group1).

A real outstanding accomplishment given that Geoffrey trained 2 winners last season and probably doesn't have the support, facilities, technology etc. of some of the trainers that he beat.

If Maximus Red and Divine State are better horses then did Geoffrey outdrive Geary and Turnbull?

We hear so much about why trainer x is more successful because they are more thorough, work longer or harder etc.

We haven't heard much about Geoff. - Maybe we'll see a big story soon.

I'd love to hear Geoffrey's story. Does anyone know more?
