Interesting fact:

Altius has a full brother (a gelding) who it seems has retired from racing.
Coubertin was also trained by Chris Waller for some time and then transferred to Con Karakatsanis.

Coubertin Career Stats
Earnings: $21,310
Starts: 17
Wins: 2
Seconds: 1
Thirds: 0

He won a Maiden at Seymour and an RB72 at Sale these were when trained by A J Vasil.
Chris Waller had no wins nor placings for the horse after training him for 5 starts.
Con Karakatsanis also trained him for a further 5 starts, for 0 wins, 0 placings.

He is (was) owned by the same owner/breeders.

So who was the bright spark who suggested gelding this beautifully bred horse
