Mystery Lad (AUS) Horse
About
Mystery Lad is an 8yo grey gelding from Australia, trained by Jacob Perrett. He is by the stallion Benfica out of Grey Touch and has claimed eight victories to date. On 7 Feb 2025 at Walcha he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $35,000 Open Handicap. The horse has consistently delivered value to bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 139% return on investment.
