About

Opal Storm is a 6yo bay trained by B Rothwell. It is sired by the stallion Hot Streak out of the dam Dark Opal. The horse has secured three victories to date. On 15 Aug 2024 at Beverley, Opal Storm claimed its biggest triumph, winning the $4527.00 Rob Burrow Dare To Dream Handicap. It has proved a rewarding runner for bettors. Backing the horse from the start would have yielded a 127% return on investment.
