About
Stormbender, a 4yo grey-bay mare from Australia, is trained by Archie Alexander in Ballarat. She is by Ole Kirk out of Stormcrusher. To date she has secured two victories, the most notable being on 4 Feb 2026 at Sandown Hillside when she captured the $55,000 3‑y‑o Bm64 Hcp. Punters have found her a value play, delivering an 18% return on investment for those who backed her throughout her career.
