About
Matawai is a 6yo bay mare trained by Jeff Dunn in Beaudesert. She is by Derryn out of Rocknrolla and has recorded five wins. On 14 Aug 2024 at Sandown Lakeside, she secured her most important triumph in the $50000.00 3yo+ Benchmark 64 Handicap. Punters have found her profitable; backing her from the start would have produced a 12% return on investment.
