Description
Nordicus is an outstanding physical specimen, by the gun young sire Dundeel and out of the Gold Slipper winner Miss Finland. Standing at approximately 16.1HH he is a lovely bid scopey horse which is reflective of his $900,000 yearling price tag.
A Randwick winner from only 4 starts, Nordicus certainly has ability but his racing has been hampered by his fair share of setbacks. Following his 4th placing at Randwick on the Kensington track on Wednesday 4th September he has unfortunately been imposed with a 3 month racing embargo for bleeding.
