About

Special Light is an 11yo b mare from Australia, trained by Tony Pike in Cambridge. She is by Redoute's Choice out of New Light and has secured three career victories. Her most notable win came on 2 Mar 2019 at Ellerslie, earning the $50,000 Vertical Logistics (bm72). Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have produced a 38% return on investment. She retired after her final start on 29 Feb 2020 at Ellerslie.
