About
Zorro's Flight is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Patrick and Michelle Payne. He is by Toronado out of Doves Cry. To date he has recorded two victories. On 11 January 2025 at Flemington he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $150,000 3yo Benchmark 70 Handicap. The horse has been a money‑maker for bettors, delivering roughly a 16% return on investment for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
