Description

Alfano is a five year old gelding by Rubick out of Zermatt by Shaft. He has had 18 starts with two wins and four placings. His second last start, he was placed in town on the Kensington track, only beaten 2.5 lengths.

His last start at Canterbury was a bit luckless as, from the barrier he was shuffled to the back of the field, and when he tried to make his run at the top of the straight, his run was impeded. When he got into the clear, the race was over.

Alfano has been spelling since and is now ready to return to work. He is the ideal HIGHWAY horse and is for genuine sale. 573 kg & 16.1 h
