About

Furneaux is a 6yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by John Keys at Seven Mile Beach. He is by the stallion Palentino out of Talus. To date he has won eight races. On 31 Aug 2025 at Hobart he secured his biggest victory, winning the $30000.00 Bm76 Hcp. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 9% ROI.
