About
First Confession is a 7yo bay horse trained by J Tizzard. It is by the stallion Affinisea out of the dam Lough Derg Lily. The horse has won four races to date. On 16 Feb 2025 at Ascot, First Confession claimed its biggest victory, earning $24,593.00 in the Cl2 Nvh. It has been a profitable runner for punters, and backing it throughout its career would have yielded a 7% return on investment.
