About
Woodland Wonder is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by David & Marcus Scanes on the Gold Coast. He is by Top Echelon out of Bella's Shadow and has secured two career victories. His most notable triumph came on 5 Nov 2025 at Grafton, where he won the $27,000 Class 1 & Maiden Plate. Punters have found him profitable; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 60% return on investment.
