Captured By Love (AUS) Horse
About
Captured By Love is a 4yo chestnut mare from Australia trained by Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson at Matamata. She is by Written Tycoon out of the dam Moldova. With a Group One win and $735,839 in career earnings, she is regarded as an elite racehorse. On 16 November 2024 at Riccarton Park, she was ridden by Joshua Parr and secured her most important victory, the $550,000 3yo F Open Set Weight, beating Alabama Lass. She has been a profitable runner for punters; backing her throughout her career would have produced a 1% return on investment.
