African Thunder (AUS)
About
Devonport Synthetic R7 2B2P Furniture & Homeware (Bm76) African Thunder is a 7yo bay/brown gelding from Australia, trained by Drew Tyson at Hagley. He is by Alpine Eagle out of Umlimo. He has secured three wins so far. His biggest triumph arrived on 11 Feb 2024 at Hobart, where he captured the $30,000 Benchmark 64 Handicap. Punters have found him profitable; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 2% return on investment.
