About

Notabadspillane, a 5yo bay gelding, is trained by Shaun Phelan of Cambridge. He is by Time Test out of Threepence. To date he has secured three victories. His biggest triumph came on 27 Sep 2025 at Te Rapa, where he won the $65,000 Benchmark 75 Handicap. The horse has been a consistent money‑maker for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 56 % return on investment.
