About

Battalion is a 7yo bay/brown gelding trained by Scott Seymour. He is out of stallion Vadamos and dam La Bella. He has recorded one win so far. On 23 Mar 2024 at Toowoomba, he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $24,500 Maiden Set Weight. Throughout his career he has been a profitable runner for bettors—backing him from the start would have produced a 6% return on investment.
