About

Getafix is a 4yo grey‑bay gelding from Australia, trained by John O'Shea and Tom Charlton. He is by Calyx out of Grisaille and has recorded five wins so far. On 6 Nov 2025 at Flemington he secured his most important triumph, winning the $150,000 Benchmark 90 Handicap. The horse has been a solid money‑maker for punters, delivering about a 30% return on investment for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
