NORWAY (IRE)

5yo Bay Gelding by GALILEO from LOVE ME TRUE

Summary: 23-3:1:5 Prizemoney: $515,286

Norway is a Group 3 winner by champion sire Galileo. Norway has raced three times this preparation for trainer Peter Moody with his last a 6th at Caulfield over 2400m on Saturday 10th April 2021 and is being sold to dissolve a partnership that raced the gelding. Norway is a good looking gelding and is easy to train, handle and float. Norway has shown potential as a future jumper and has schooled well at Pakenham recently for his trainer Peter Moody.

Norway is 16.1hh and approximately 530kg. He is a good mover and track worker. NORWAY is available for any vet checks pre the sale concluding at Yulong Park in Bayles Victoria. He has shown enough potential to suggest he has wins in store for the new owner. The 5yo gelding is a strong type with lots of quality and will be fun to race or jump in the future.

All pre-sale veterinary inspections are welcome.

For further information please contact Luke Wilkinson 0413489736.
