About
Barney Rommel, a 3yo brown gelding from Australia, is trained by Tom Wolfe. He is by Rommel out of Silk Spun. He has secured one win in his career. On 26 Jan 2026 at Bunbury he claimed his most notable triumph, winning the $25,000 Maiden race. He has been a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 200% return on investment.
