About
Kentucky Cajun is a 5yo horse from the United States trained by Joseph M. Foster. He is by the stallion Peppered Cat out of the mare Shelly's Hope. To date, Kentucky Cajun has won four races. On 29th May 2024 at Louisiana Downs, he earned his most important victory, taking the $20,000 prize in Race 5. The horse has proved profitable for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 13% return on investment.
