About
Woodland Wonder, a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, is trained by David & Marcus Scanes. He is by Top Echelon out of Bella's Shadow. To date he has claimed two victories, the most notable being the $27,000 Class 1 & Maiden Plate at Grafton on 5 Nov 2025. Punters have found him rewarding; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 43% return on investment.
