About

Velocious is a 4yo chestnut filly from Australia trained by Stephen Marsh. She is out of the dam Parmalove and by the stallion Written Tycoon. With a Group One victory and career earnings of $908,712, she is classified as an elite racehorse. On 9 Mar 2024 at Ellerslie, ridden by Sam Spratt, she captured her most important win—the $450000.00 2yo Open Set Weight—defeating Archaic Smile. Throughout her campaign she has been a profitable runner for bettors, and backing her over her entire career would have yielded a 146% return on investment.
