About
Blue Bandit, a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by John Leek Jnr at Pakenham. He is by the stallion Blue Point out of the mare On the Loose. To date he has secured two career victories. His most important win came on 26 Mar 2026 at Pakenham, when he captured the $40,000 Bm62 Hcp. Punters have found him to be a value runner; a lifelong backer would have earned a 38% ROI.
