About
Wanda River is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Sue Grills in Tamworth. He is by the stallion Wandjina out of the mare Shock Me. To date he has claimed four victories. On 27 Oct 2024 at Coonabarabran he earned his biggest triumph, winning the $30,000 Class 3 Handicap. He has been a profit‑making runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 61% return on investment.
