Butterfly Style (AUS) Horse
About
Butterfly Style is a 4yo bay mare from Australia trained by Mitchell Beer and George Carpenter at Kembla Grange. She is by Merchant Navy out of Blithe Belle and has secured three wins so far. On 8 June 2025 at Sapphire Coast she captured her biggest victory, taking the $50,000 Maiden Handicap. The horse has been a profitable prospect for bettors; backing her throughout her career would have generated a 115 % return on investment.
