About
Opera Belle, a 7yo brown mare, is trained by Kylie Hoskin at Byerley Park. She is by Reliable Man out of Kiri and has captured three victories to date. Her biggest triumph came on 26 Sep 2025 at Otaki, when she won the $40,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 15% return on investment.
