About

Eighteen Palms, a 6-year-old brown gelding originally from New Zealand, is trained by Hong Kong-based C S Shum. Sired by El Roca and out of the mare Buttermilk, Eighteen Palms has secured two victories in its racing career. Its most notable win came on February 7th, 2024, at Happy Valley, where jockey Harry Bentley rode it to victory in the $2,050,000 Class 3 Handicap, beating Tourbillon Prince.

Eighteen Palms has been a profitable choice for bettors, offering a 5 percent return on investment for those who have consistently backed the horse.
