About
Girl Talk is a 4yo bay mare trained by Stephen Nickalls at Rangiotu. She is by the stallion Zed out of the dam Gossiping. So far she has recorded three wins. On 6 Dec 2025 at Trentham she secured her most important victory, taking the $65,000 3yo+ Maiden Set Weight With Allowances. She has been a profitable runner for bettors; staying with her throughout her career would have produced a 75% return on investment.
