About
Flamboyant Lad is a 4yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by Liam Ruddy. He is by the stallion Yes Yes Yes out of the mare Ra Ra Epic. To date he has captured three victories, the most notable being the $32,000 Maiden Plate at Geelong on 22 August 2025. Punters have found him to be a value pick; backing his entire career would have yielded a 132% ROI.
