About
Lightning Speed is a 5yo chestnut mare from Australia trained by Todd Smart. She is by Akeed Mofeed out of Twilighting. To date she has won 4 races. On 26 Nov 2024 at Tamworth she captured her biggest victory, the $50,000 Maiden Handicap. The filly has been a solid money‑maker for gamblers; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 118% return on investment.
