About

Volcanic Express, a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by David Jolly. His sire is Hualalai and his dam is Rugged Angel. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $209,360, he is regarded as above‑average. On 19 Apr 2025 at Oakbank, ridden by Justin Potter, he secured his biggest triumph in the $140,000 Open Quality, defeating Sir Sway. He has consistently provided value to bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 43% return on investment.
