About
Skirmish, a 3yo brown filly from Australia, is trained by Kerry Parker of Kembla Grange. She is by Smart Missile out of So You Leica. To date she has claimed a single victory, which came on 14 Jan 2026 at Kensington when she captured the $60,000 3yo&up Maiden Plate, her most important win. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 200% return on investment.
