Esprit Du Potier (2019)
About
Esprit Du Potier is a 6yo gelding trained by L Russell and M Scudamore. He is by Montmartre out of Absent Minded and has chalked up four wins so far. On 2 Jan 2024 at Ayr he captured his most important victory, winning the $8 213.00 Class 4 maiden. The horse has proved a profitable pick for punters, and backing him throughout his career would have delivered an 8 % return on investment.
