Montezulu (AUS) Horse
About
Montezulu, a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by John Blacker. His sire is the stallion Zululand and his dam is Montavator. To date, Montezulu has secured three victories. His most notable triumph came on 25 Aug 2024 at Hobart, where he captured the $25,000 Benchmark 64 Handicap. He has consistently delivered value to bettors, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 38% return on investment.
