About

Empirical is a 3yo brown gelding trained by S Ramsay and J Ritchie. He is by Eminent out of Pink Bubbles. He has recorded one win so far. On 2 November 2025 at Woodville, he earned his biggest victory, taking the $18,500 3yo Maiden Set Weight. He has been a lucrative prospect for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 255% return on investment.
