About
Gowells Delight is a 4yo horse from the United States trained by Kenneth G. McPeek. He is by the stallion Practical Joke out of the dam Hello Charlie. He has earned two victories, the most notable on 8 February 2026 at Oaklawn Park when he captured the $125000.00 Race 5 purse. The horse has been profitable for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 69% return on investment.
