Diamond Scene (AUS) Horse
About
Diamond Scene, a 6yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Michael Grantham, is by the stallion So You Think out of the mare Jewelled. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $868,333, he is considered a racehorse of above‑average talent. On 18 Oct 2025 at Ascot, jockey Clint Johnston‑Porter guided Diamond Scene to his biggest victory to date in the $200,000 3yo+ Open Set Weight With Penalties, beating Comfort Me. He has consistently been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 181% return on investment.
