About
Jimmy The Bear is a 7yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by Patrick Payne at Plumpton. He is out of the dam Belvedere Road and by the stallion Jimmy Creed. As a stakes winner with $1,517,425 in career earnings, he is regarded as a racehorse of above‑average ability. On 5th Jul 2025 at Flemington, ridden by Billy Egan, he claimed his most significant win, taking the $200,000 Winter C'ship Final over Munhamek. He has consistently been a profitable pick for punters, and backing him throughout his career would have produced a 50% return on investment.
