About

I've Bean Tryin' is a 7yo brown gelding from Australia, trained by Matthew Kelley. He is by the stallion Spill the Beans out of the dam Sheza Lonhro. To date he has secured eight career victories. On 7 Nov 2023 at Randwick he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $250,000 Barn Dance. The horse has been a money‑maker for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 54% ROI.
