About

Hollywood Epic is a 5yo bay/brown gelding from Australia, trained by Renita Beaton on the Gold Coast. He is by Shamus Award out of American Joy. So far he has recorded two wins. His most important triumph occurred on 21 Mar 2025 at Ipswich, where he secured the $28,000 Benchmark 58 Handicap.
