About
Crunchy Nut is a 5yo bay/brown gelding from Australia, trained by Helen Harding. He is by Ducimus out of Corn Flakes. To date he has secured five victories. His biggest triumph came on 26 Nov 2023 at Bunbury, where he won the $30,000 Class One Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 127% ROI.
