About
The Dog Thief is a 6yo gelding trained by T Ellis in Rugby. He is by the stallion Califet out of Joint Reaction and has recorded three wins so far. On 24 Apr 2026 at Perth he captured his biggest triumph, taking the $14,755.00 Class 3 handicap. The horse has been a profitable prospect for punters; backing him throughout his career would have generated a 119% return on investment.
