Flying Valley (AUS)
About
Flying Valley is a 5yo grey gelding from Australia trained by Julius Sandhu of Cranbourne. He is out of the dam I Need To Fly and his sire is Dark Valley. To date he has recorded four wins. On 10 Sep 2025 at Sandown Hillside he secured his most important victory, winning the $50,000 3yo+ Benchmark 70 Handicap. He has proved a profitable runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have generated a 111% return on investment.
