About
Metaphorically is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Jeff Dunn. He is by Written Tycoon out of Cymbalism. To date he has recorded four victories. On 19 Sep 2026 at the Gold Coast he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $85,000 C,g&e Bm78 Handicap. Punters have found him to be a money‑making runner; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 6% ROI.
