Need A Giggle
Stable

Trained by Alana Fulton at Longford, Need A Giggle is a 6 year old gelding by the sire Needs Further, out of the dam Merrick's Beauty.

Need A Giggle is still a maiden as he is yet to win a race from 34 starts. His career earnings are $20k, with the biggest win of his career coming at Hobart on February 18th in 2024 when he won $5,000 in the Ladbrokes Owners Incentive Mdn Plate (a set weight race over 1,000 metres).

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