About
Valdero is a 3yo bay from the United States trained by Marcus J. Vitali. He is by the stallion Medaglia D'oro out of the mare Spice Lady. To date he has recorded two victories in his career. On 5 February 2026 at Tampa Bay Downs, Valdero captured his most important triumph, winning the $29,000 Race 2. He has consistently delivered profit to bettors, and a lifelong backer would have enjoyed a 242% return on investment.
