About

Hey Happy, a nine-year-old bay gelding from Australia, is trained by Wanganui-based Kevin Myers. Sired by Rip Van Winkle and out of Our Zara, Hey Happy has secured eight victories in its racing career. Its most notable win came on May 15, 2022, at Casterton, where jockey Steven Pateman rode the horse to victory in the $35,000 Maiden Hurdle Set Weight, beating Tolemac.

Hey Happy has been a profitable investment for bettors, yielding a 9 percent return on investment for those who have consistently backed the horse.
