About
Kempes is a 6yo bay/brown gelding from Argentina, trained by D J Hall in Hong Kong. He is out of the mare Lovely Lady and sired by In The Dark. To date he has recorded three career wins, highlighted by a $1,860,000 Class 3 Handicap victory at Sha Tin on 1 Oct 2025. Punters have found him profitable; backing his entire career would have yielded a 141% return on investment.
