About
Lightning Strikes is a 4yo chestnut gelding from Australia trained by Jason Edwards. He is by the stallion Rothesay out of Our Angelica. He has recorded two career wins, the most important being the $24,500 3yo Maiden Handicap at Toowoomba on 12 Apr 2025. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 201% return on investment.
