About
Sunday Punch is a 4yo bay or brown mare from Australia, trained by Cheryl Grouse. She is by Brutal out of Chuchoter and has recorded a single victory in her career. On 12 Mar 2026 at Newcastle she claimed the $45,000 Midway Maiden Handicap, her most notable win to date. Punters have found her profitable; a full‑career backing would have delivered an 810% return on investment.
