About

Headline Legend is a 4yo brown gelding from Australia trained by John Thomas. He is by Star Turn out of Commanding Jewel. He has recorded 2 wins in his career. On 10 Jul 2025 at Gatton he secured his biggest triumph, the $22,000 Maiden Set Weight. The horse has been a profitable choice for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 122% return on investment.
