About
Well Aware, a 4yo horse from the United States trained by Chris A. Hartman, runs in Oaklawn Park’s R7 Race 7. He is by City Of Light out of Inside Story. To date, he has recorded three wins, including his biggest victory on 17 Nov 2025 at Churchill Downs, where he captured the $57,000 Race 3 purse. Punter returns have been strong; backing him throughout his career would have yielded an 85 % ROI.
