About
Italian Wine is a 3yo ch from the United States trained by Michael E. Gorham. Sired by Munnings out of Causeway Royce, the horse has recorded two victories to date. On 22 Dec 2025 at Gulfstream, Italian Wine earned its biggest purse, netting $29,000.00. The animal has been a profitable choice for bettors; a lifelong backing would have yielded a 14% ROI.
