About
John Storey is an 8yo gelding trained by Ian Donoghue in Meath. He is by the stallion Yeats out of the dam Fore And Aft. John Storey has won one race in his career so far. On 1 January 2025 at Fairyhouse he secured his biggest victory, earning $11,500 in the Hcph. He has proven profitable for punters, and betting on him throughout his career would have yielded a 19% return on investment.
