Horse Profile

The Bont
Stable

Trained by Shay Keating at Ballarat, The Bont is a 10 year old gelding by the sire Lope De Vega, out of the dam Palena.

He has won a total of 6 races from 66 starts for a win percentage of 9%. His career earnings are $152k, with the biggest win of his career coming at Ballarat Synthetic on August 15th in 2023 when he won $14,850 in the Sportsbet Loves Ballarat (a handicap race over 1,000 metres).

Betting level stakes of $100 win on all of the horse's starts would have yielded a loss of $-100.

The gelding tends to run better on good ground, with an average prize money per start of $1k in those conditions.
