About

Santastico, a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by Matthew Seyers. He is by Santos out of Fowz and has recorded six career victories. On 11 November 2023 at Morphettville Parks, he captured his biggest triumph, winning the $65,000 Benchmark 68 Handicap. Punters have found him to be a lucrative runner; backing him over his career would have yielded a 64% return on investment.
