About

American Muscle is an 11yo brown gelding from Australia, trained by Dick Leech in Alice Springs. He is by the stallion All American out of the mare Komachi. To date he has earned six wins, the highlight coming on 6 May 2019 at Ladbrokes Pioneer Park when he claimed the $25000.00 0‑66 Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for punters; a lifelong bet on him would have produced a 74% return on investment. He finished his racing career with a final start on 5 Aug 2019 at Darwin.
