As the jumps racing season draws to a climax, the attention of the Australian horse racing world turns to the heavyweight event on the jumps calendar, the Grand National Steeplechase.

Season favourite Stern Idol is gearing up for the final showcase, bringing the year’s events to a thrilling close.

Stern Idol emerged this season as a formidable contender, showing exceptional promise in stunning performances. The focus is now firmly fixed on Stern Idol’s last effort for the season, the upcoming Grand National Steeplechase.

The prestigious event, held at Ballarat, offers not only a lucrative prize pool but also the coveted honour of being crowned Australia’s top steeplechaser.

Stern Idol, under the guidance of trainers Ciaron Maher & David Eustace, has demonstrated incredible talent and determination throughout the season, making this event one of the most anticipated in recent years.

The thoroughbred’s progression throughout the year has, without a doubt, positioned Stern Idol at the forefront of the scene.

Racing experts believe the Grand National could be Stern Idol’s best performance yet, provided the horse maintains its excellent form and fitness leading to the event.

With the jumps season nearing its final curtain call, all eyes are set on Stern Idol’s final run on the tracks. As the anticipation mounts, the question remains: Can Stern Idol successfully round out the jumps season with one last, incredible performance?
