About

More Heroic is a 4yo bay or brown gelding from Australia, trained by Michael Grantham. He is by Pierro out of Sookie and has recorded one career win. On 2 June 2025 at Northam, he claimed his biggest victory to date, capturing the $25,000 2yo+ Maiden Set Weight. The horse has delivered solid profits for bettors, and backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 367% return on investment.
