About

Balaklava R5 Austin S Condon Memorial Benchmark 56 Handicap Gusty Way is a 6yo chestnut gelding (male) from Australia trained by Sue & Jason Jaensch. He is by the stallion Trust in a Gust out of the mare Melodies Way. To date he has secured three victories. On 14 Aug 2024 at Murray Bridge he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $25,000 Restricted 56 Handicap. Punters have found him to be a value play; backing him throughout his career would have yielded an 82% return on investment.
