About

Spirit Of Jo is a 4yo bay mare from Australia, trained by Lee & Shannon Hope. She is by Impending out of Forjo. To date she has collected two wins. Her biggest triumph came on 21 Feb 2025 at Kilmore, when she captured the $27,000 Benchmark 64 Handicap. Throughout her campaign she has delivered solid value to bettors, and a backer who rode her from the start would have seen a 36% return on investment.
