About

Let Sparks Fly is a 5yo bay or brown mare from Australia, trained by Sky Ballinger. She is by the stallion Epaulette out of the dam More Spark. She has won three races so far. On 21 Dec 2025 at Pinjarra she claimed her most important win, taking the $30,000 Rtg 50+ Handicap. Punters have found her profitable; backing her throughout her career would have produced a 42% return on investment.
