About
Brave Action is a 5yo bay or brown gelding from Australia, trained by Grant Young at Murray Bridge. He is by Brave Smash out of Danseuse and has secured four career victories. On 8th Jun 2025 at Swan Hill, he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $50,000 Bm70 Hcp. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 95% return on investment.
