About
Being Betty is a 5yo b from the United States trained by Lisa Bartkowski. The horse is by Weekend Hideaway out of Lady Joan. To date, Being Betty has recorded six wins. On 4th Jun 2026 at Saratoga, it captured its biggest victory, the $200,000 Mount Vernon Stakes, earning the purse. The animal has been a lucrative prospect for bettors, and a backer who followed its entire career would have realized a 49% return on investment.
