About
Village Girl is a 7yo bay mare from Australia trained by Takahide Ikenushi. She is by Universal Ruler out of Amber Dream. To date she has claimed seven victories. On 30 Jul 2025 at Belmont she earned her biggest prize, the $35,000 No‑metro‑wins contest for the previous year. Punters have found her to be a consistently profitable runner; backing her across her career would have yielded a 7% ROI.
