About

Spirit Of Jo is a 4yo bay mare from Australia trained by Lee & Shannon Hope in Seymour. She is by Impending out of Forjo. To date she has recorded two victories. Her biggest triumph came on 21 Feb 2025 at Kilmore, when she captured the $27,000 3yo+ Benchmark 64 Handicap. Punters have found her a worthwhile selection; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 36% ROI.
