Investmentstrategy (AUS) Horse
About
Investmentstrategy is a 5yo brown gelding from Australia trained by Neville Parnham at Ascot. He is by the stallion Playing God out of the dam World Class. As a stakes winner with $515,265 in earnings, he is considered to have above‑average ability. On 2 Dec 2023 at Ascot, Brad Parnham rode him to his most important win, the $125,000 Open Set Weight With Penalties, beating Generosity. He has been a profitable horse for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 39% return on investment.
