About

Black Ora is a 4yo brown/black mare from Australia trained by Adam Durrant. She is by Playing God out of Ortessa. She has secured five wins so far. On 18 Oct 2025 at Ascot she claimed her most important victory, the $80,000 3yo+ Benchmark 66+ Handicap. Punters have found her profitable; wagering on her throughout her career would have generated a 34% return on investment.
