Bourbon Empress (2020) Horse
About
Bourbon Empress is a 5yo bay mare trained by Stephen Marsh. She is by Proisir out of Amiga Mia. Having captured a Group Two race and earned $294,596 in her career, she is considered a highly capable racehorse. On 1 January 2025 at Ellerslie, she was ridden by Matthew Cartwright and claimed her biggest victory, winning the $270,000 Open Handicap over Jaarffi. Punters have found her to be a lucrative prospect; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 135% return on investment.
