About

Colourful Gan is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Douglas Whyte in Hong Kong. He is by the stallion Long Leaf out of the dam Tricolore. He has secured two career wins, the most important being on 20 Apr 2025 at Sale, where he captured the $27,000 3yo+ Benchmark 64 Handicap. The horse has proven profitable for bettors; anyone who backed him throughout his career would have achieved a 270% return on investment.
