About
Tsunuki is a 4yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Matthew Dunn in Murwillumbah. He is by Dundeel out of Sekiyama and has recorded one win in his career. On 11 Aug 2026 at Ballina he claimed the $30,000 Country Boosted Maiden Plate, his most significant victory to date, and has proved a profitable runner for punters, delivering a 180% return on investment for those who backed him throughout his career.
