About
Thunder Zeus, a 4yo grey‑chestnut gelding from Australia, is trained by Peter Gelagotis at Pakenham OC. He is by Night of Thunder out of Trapani. The horse has recorded a single victory, which came on 23May2025 at Cranbourne when he captured the $40,000 3yo+ Maiden Set Weight. Punters have found him profitable; backing his entire career would have yielded a 70% return on investment.
