Description
The Catch was a a 375k yearling out of Group mare CURTANA.
After starting his career in Victoria he was gelded and sent to QLD. He has now won 5 from 7 starts and really come back in this preperation and gone to another level putting together a picket fence.
He was accepeted to race two weeks ago in the Doomben Saturday meeting which, was unfortunately called off due to the wet weather.
On Wedneday he went a month between runs to win well at midweek level.
He is a sound horse that has no vices and the only reason he is being sold is due to Michael Costa departing Australian racing.
He is a pleasure to deal with and has all of the staff fuss over him.
He is also Magic Millions Nominated.
If he does not sell he will look to head to the Ipswich Cup/Grafton Cup or the benchmark 72 1800 at Rosehill on the 18th of June.
