About

Purple Smile is a 14yo bay or brown gelding from Australia trained by David Hayes. He is sired by the stallion Zabeel out of the dam By Her Smile. Having won at Group Two level and earned $408,420 throughout his career, Purple Smile is considered a highly talented racehorse. On March 14, 2016, at Morphettville, Purple Smile, ridden by Stephen Baster, achieved his most notable victory in the $400,000 Adelaide Cup, defeating Tunes. He has been a lucrative choice for bettors. Backing Purple Smile throughout his career would have yielded a 21% return on investment. Purple Smile's racing career ended on May 6, 2017, at Flemington.
