About

Great D'Ange is a 9yo bay horse trained by A Gibbons, who operates out of Westbury‑on‑Severn. He is by the stallion Great Pretender out of the mare Vickx. So far he has recorded five wins. On 22 Aug 2024 at Newton Abbot, Great D'Ange secured his most important triumph, winning the $5 624.00 Happy Birthday Jo Handicap Chase. He has proved a lucrative runner for bettors, and anyone who backed him throughout his career would have earned a 188 % return on investment.
