About
Knight'S Choice is a 6yo bay gelding (male) from Australia trained by John Symons & Sheila Laxon, who is based at Macedon. He is sired by the stallion Extreme Choice out of the dam Midnight Pearl. Given that he has won at Group One level and has amassed $5,852,400 in career earnings, Knight'S Choice is regarded as an elite class of racehorse. On 5th Nov 2024 at Flemington, Knight'S Choice was ridden by Robbie Dolan and scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $8560000.00 3yo+ Open Handicap, defeating Warp Speed. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Knight'S Choice throughout his career you'd have achieved a 404% return on investment.
