About
Giapponese is a 4yo chestnut stallion from Australia, trained by Stephen & Jordan Lee in Ballina. He is by Admire Mars out of Bounding Along and has won four races to date. On 31 January 2026 at Eagle Farm he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $85000.00 Qtis 3-y-o Hcp. Throughout his career he has been a rewarding prospect for bettors; backing him from the start would have generated a 456% return on investment.
