About

Galvin is a 11yo b trained by G Elliott. He is by the stallion Gold Well out of the mare Burren Moonshine. To date he has recorded 13 wins in his career. On 28 Dec 2021 at Leopardstown, Galvin secured his most important triumph, netting $175,000 in a Class 1 Chase. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors over time. Backing Galvin for his entire career would have generated a 10% return on investment.
