About
Rippington, a 5yo chestnut gelding from Australia, is trained by Barry Campbell. He is out of the mare Lady Bligh and by the stallion Written By. To date he has recorded two victories, the most notable being on 19 Aug 2026 at Hobart where he captured the $26,000 Class 1 Handicap. The horse has been a money‑maker for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 27% return on investment.
