Giavellotto (2019) Horse
About
Giavellotto, a 6yo chestnut stallion trained by Marco Botti in Hong Kong, is by Mastercraftsman out of Gerika. After capturing a Group One victory and accumulating $5,628,366 in earnings, he is considered an elite racehorse. On 8 Dec 2024 at Sha Tin, ridden by Oisin Murphy, he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $24,000,000 3yo+ Open Weight‑For‑Age race and beating Dubai Honour. Punters have found him highly profitable; a lifelong backing would have yielded a 417% return on investment.
