About
Ryui Kokoroe, a 4yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by David Hayes. He is by Ilovethiscity out of O'reilly's Charm and has won two races to date. On 3 May 2025 at Sunshine Coast he captured the $30,000 3yo Maiden Set Weight, his biggest victory so far. The horse has proved a profitable choice for bettors, delivering about a 10% return on investment for those who backed him throughout his career.
