Wanda River (AUS)
About
Wanda River, a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, is under the care of trainer Sue Grills in Tamworth. He is by the stallion Wandjina out of the mare Shock Me. To date, he has secured four victories. His most notable triumph came on 27 Oct 2024 at Coonabarabran, where he captured the $30,000 Class 3 Handicap. The horse has consistently delivered profit for bettors, and anyone who backed him throughout his career would have realised a 107% return on investment.
