About

Liuzza, a 4yo b from the United States trained by Matt A. Shirer, is out of the mare Elusive Candy and was sired by Maximus Mischief. The horse has captured five wins so far. Its biggest victory arrived on 15 Dec 2025 at Oaklawn Park, where it took the $115,000 Race 10. Liuzza has proved a profitable runner for bettors; staying with the horse through its career would have produced a 22% return on investment.
