Shining Smile (AUS)
About
Shining Smile is a 3yo bay colt from Australia trained by Ben, Will & Jd Hayes at Flemington. He is by Spirit Of Boom out of Nataya Rose. As a stakes winner with $517,625 in career earnings, he is viewed as a racehorse with above‑average ability. On 25 January 2025 at Sandown Lakeside, ridden by Daniel Stackhouse, he secured his most important win to date, taking the $250,000 Open Set Weight With Penalties and defeating Yamashita's Gold. He has proved a lucrative runner for punters; backing him throughout his career would have generated a 51% return on investment.
