Smokin' Joey
(AUS)About
Smokin' Joey is a 17yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Wez Hunter. He is sired by the stallion Encosta de Lago out of the dam Dalzing. Having won at Group One level and earned $1,498,583 throughout his career, Smokin' Joey is considered an elite racehorse. On May 10, 2014, at Morphettville, Smokin' Joey, ridden by Ben Melham, secured his most notable victory, winning the $500,000 The Tapestry Wines Goodwood and defeating Platelet. He has been a profitable horse for bettors. Backing Smokin' Joey throughout his career would have yielded a 92% return on investment. Smokin' Joey has retired from racing, with his final race on October 15, 2016, at Caulfield.
