About

Absolutely Yes is a 3yo gelding trained by Justin Snaith. The colt is by Danon Platina out of Maybe Yes. So far the horse has secured three victories. Its biggest triumph came on 21 Jun 2025 at Kenilworth, where it captured the $475,007 Langerman Grade 3 (2yo) race. The horse has consistently yielded profit for bettors; backing it throughout its career would have produced a 52% return on investment.
