About
Lugh is a 5yo chestnut gelding from Australia, trained by Ciaron Maher in Ballarat. He is by Snitzel out of the mare Marcia Proba and has collected five wins to date. On 26 July 2025 at Randwick, he secured his most important triumph, taking the $160,000 4yo&up BM 78 Handicap. The horse has been a solid money‑maker for punters, delivering a 300% return on investment for anyone who backed him throughout his career.
