Close At Hand (AUS) Horse
About
Close At Hand is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Peter Fernie in Kalgoorlie. He is by Impending out of Miss Supersonic. He has recorded six wins in his career. On 10 January 2024 at Belmont, he claimed his biggest victory, taking the $35,000 3yo Rst 0 Met Win‑ly Handicap. The horse has consistently been profitable for bettors, and a lifelong backer would have earned roughly a 12% return on investment.
