Gaston was a $230,000 yearling consigned at the 2008 Inglis Easter Sale in Sydney.

He becomes the 9th individual first crop winner for Charge Forward adding to 7 Australian winners (including the stakes winner and G1 placed Headway and stakesplaced Carlton Forward) and Vilmart – a winner in Japan.
