About

Acquitted is an 8yo brown gelding from Ireland trained by Kris Lees. He is sired by the stallion Night of Thunder out of the dam Blameless. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $552,863, Acquitted is considered a racehorse with above-average ability. On December 23, 2023, at Eagle Farm, Acquitted, ridden by James Orman, secured his most notable victory to date, winning the $200,000 Bernborough Plate (3yo & Up) and defeating Without Revenge. He has been a profitable horse for bettors. If you had backed Acquitted throughout his career, you would have achieved a 19% return on investment.
