Makhanda (AUS) Horse
About
Makhanda, a 4yo brown gelding from Australia, is trained by Rod Symons in Bendigo. He is out of the mare Legion's Belle and sired by Turffontein. To date he has recorded two wins, the most notable being the $42,500 Maiden Plate at Donald on 16 November 2025. Punters have found him rewarding; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 135% return on investment.
