About

Gandolfini is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Cassandra Schmidt. He is by Casino Prince out of Ku De Tah. He has collected four wins so far. On 7 Apr 2025 at Tuncurry he secured his biggest triumph, claiming the $30,000 Benchmark 58 Handicap. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 49% return on investment.
