About
The Calabrese is a 5yo bay gelding trained by Chris & Michael Gangemi at Henley Brook. He is by Per Incanto out of Drive On. So far he has claimed five victories. On 30 May 2026 at Belmont he earned his biggest triumph, winning the $80,000 Rtg 72+ Handicap. He has consistently delivered value to bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 32% return on investment.
