About
Sass Appeal, a 3yo bay filly from Australia, is trained by Danny O'brien. She is out of the stallion So You Think and the mare Cristal Eyes. To date she has recorded two wins. Her most notable victory arrived on 17 Jan 2026 at Flemington, when she captured the $150000.00 3-y-o Bm70 Hcp. The filly has proved a money‑making runner for punters, delivering a 30% return on investment for anyone who backed her throughout her career.
