About

Betterlucknexttime is a 3yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Liam Birchley on the Sunshine Coast. He is by the stallion Zousain out of Flamenco Girl. So far he has recorded two wins. On 26 Oct 2024 at Doomben he claimed his most important victory, earning the $85,000 2yo Open Set Weight With Penalties. He has proved a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 12% return on investment.
