About
Mystery Lad is a 9yo grey gelding from Australia, trained by Jacob Perrett in Tamworth. His sire is Benfica and his dam is Grey Touch. To date he has secured nine career victories. On 6 Feb 2026 at Walcha he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $45,000 Walcha Cup. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 97% return on investment.
