About
Gallant Hero is an 8yo bay gelding trained by G A & D G Rogerson and Clint Isdale in Tuhikaramea. He is by Fast Company out of Bett's Gift. To date he has won six races. On 8 November 2023 at Happy Valley he captured his biggest victory, the $1,170,000 Class 4 Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him over his career would have yielded a 32% return on investment.
