About
Tickets for the Cranbourne R4 Pinker Pinker Friday 9 October Handicap are now on sale. Opus is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Simone Manne in Cranbourne. He is by Exosphere out of Love Her Madly. He has secured two wins in his career, the most notable being the $27,000 Class 1 & Maiden Plate at Taree on 24 December 2023. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; a lifelong backing would have produced a 4% return on investment.
