About

Thistler is a 8yo bay/brown gelding (male) from Australia trained by Kelvin Bourke, who is based at Geelong. He is sired by the stallion Teofilo out of the dam Tauriel. Thistler has managed to win 2 races in his career so far. On 6th Oct 2023 at Moonee Valley, Thistler scored his most significant win to date, getting the money in the $60000.00 Benchmark 78 Handicap. He has proven a profitable horse for the punters over the journey. If you had backed Thistler throughout his career you'd have achieved a 44% return on investment.
