About
Santorini is a 6yo dk b/br from the United States trained by Michael J. Maker. He is by the stallion Twirling Candy out of the dam Giant's Jewel and has recorded five wins in his career. On September 8, 2023 at Kentucky Downs he earned his most important victory, claiming the $160,000 Cl. The horse has been a profitable choice for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 55% return on investment.
