About

Gold Coast Belle, a 3yo bay filly from Australia, is trained by Danny O'Brien. She is by the stallion So You Think out of the mare Perpetuum. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $262,675, she is considered to have above‑average talent. On 2 May 2026 at Bendigo, Jordan Childs rode her to a decisive victory in the $200,000 Bendigo Guineas, beating Bel Mezyaan. Punters have found her lucrative; a lifetime bet on her would have produced a 112% return on investment.
