About

Flywheel is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Wayne Oakenfull in Inverell. He is by the stallion Xtravagant out of the mare Venom. To date, he has claimed four victories. On 26 Sep 2025 at Lismore, he secured his biggest win, capturing the $85,000 Lismore Cup. Punters have found him to be a money‑making mount, delivering a 16% ROI for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
