The Trump (1932–1955) was an Australian-bred Thoroughbred racehorse who won the Caulfield-Melbourne Cup double as well as two other principal (Group One) (G1) races in 1937.
He showed his versatility by winning races over distances of six furlongs to two miles.
He was a small horse (15 hands 1 inch) by the very good, but temperamental racehorse Manfred who was by the outstanding sire, Valais (GB).
His dam Koanie was by the good racehorse Spearhead (GB) who sired 21 stakes-winners.[1]
Koanie was also the dam of Legislator, 1939 by Law Maker (IRE), who won the 1942 Tasmanian Guineas and later sired 9 stakes-winners for a total 19 stakes-wins between them.[2]
