About
Whatthemansaw is a 4yo chestnut gelding, male, trained by Debbie Sweeney. He was foaled by the stallion Almanzor out of the mare Spirit Of Galway. To date he has recorded two victories. On 9 May 2026 at Arawa Park he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $35,000 Benchmark 65 Handicap. Punters have found him to be a money‑maker; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 47% return on investment.
