About

Gentle Steel is a 4yo bay mare from Australia, trained by Julius Sandhu at Cranbourne. She is by Alabama Express out of Calmante. To date she has recorded two wins. On 17 July 2025 at Cranbourne she claimed the $37,500 Maiden Set Weight, her most important victory so far. She has been a profitable runner for punters; wagering on her throughout her career would have yielded a 170% return on investment.
