About
Pichu is a 3yo bay horse from the United States, trained by John E. Salzman, Jr. He is by the stallion Paynter out of the mare Just Desserts. To date, Pichu has won two races. On December 27, 2025 at Laurel Park, the horse captured its biggest victory, taking the $24,000 Race 4 purse. It has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing Pichu throughout its career would have yielded a 46% return on investment.
