About

Grand Host is a 9yo chestnut gelding (male) from Australia trained by Matthew Seyers. He is sired by the stallion Host out of the dam Miss Debra. Grand Host has won 12 races in his career so far. On 7th Jun 2025 at Morphettville Parks, he recorded his most significant win to date, earning the prize in the $55,000 4yo+ Benchmark 68 Handicap. He has proven to be a profitable horse for punters throughout his journey. Backing Grand Host over his career would have delivered a 51% return on investment.
