About

Brave is a 5yo brown gelding from Australia trained by John Leek Jnr. He is by So You Think out of Midnight Special. So far he has recorded two wins. On 3 Oct 2025 at Moonee Valley he claimed his biggest victory, taking the $60,000 3yo+ Benchmark 66 Handicap. He has proved a rewarding runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 251% return on investment.
