About
This Is The Moment is a 6yo chestnut gelding from Australia trained by David O'Prey in Wodonga. He is by Toronado out of Bella Ava. So far he has recorded four wins. On 26th Oct 2024 at Kembla Grange he claimed his biggest victory, taking the $42000.00 3yo+ Benchmark 68 Handicap. He has proven a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have produced an 18% return on investment.
