Kessler (AUS) Horse
About
Kessler is a 6yo chestnut gelding from Australia trained by Angela Forster in Darwin. His sire is Good Journey and his dam is Canconi. He has recorded six wins to date. On 19 July 2025 at Darwin he secured his biggest victory, taking the $26,000 Restricted 62 Handicap. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 56% return on investment.
