About
Taormina Duchess, a 7yo bay mare from Australia, is trained by Leah Walling‑denton in Alice Springs. She is by Spirit of Boom out of My Girl Steph. To date she has won three races. Her biggest victory came on 19 Jun 2022 at Sunshine Coast, where she captured the $26,000 Qtis 3‑y‑o Fillies Maiden Plate. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 13% return on investment.
