About
Thedoctoroflove is a 4yo bay or brown gelding (male) from Australia trained by Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young. He is out of the dam Liberty Lover and sired by the stallion So You Think. Having won at Group Two level and earned $454,729 in his career, he is considered a highly talented racehorse. On 22 Feb 2025 at Ellerslie, Daniel Moor rode him to his biggest victory, capturing the $250,000 3yo Open Set Weight and defeating Bourbon Proof. He has consistently been a profitable runner for punters, and a full‑career backing would have produced a 59% return on investment.
