Bonsa Big Boy (AUS) Horse
About
Bonsa Big Boy is a 6yo chestnut gelding from Australia trained by James Short. He is out of the stallion Bon Hoffa and the mare Rose Of Tara. So far he has recorded one win. On 5 Feb 2024 at Balaklava he earned his most important victory, taking the $25,000 3yo+ Ch&g Maiden Set Weight. He has been a lucrative runner for punters; betting on him throughout his career would have delivered a 143% return on investment.
