Description

Purchased for $260,000 from the 2022 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale, this Almanzor four-year-old gelding is lightly raced having had only eight career starts.

He was a winner on debut in Victoria (Geelong) and placed at Pakenham before spelling. He has placed at three of his five starts in New South Wales, being only narrowly beaten on two of these occasions.

He spelled on the 31st of March after having a minor temperature and resumed work on the 5th of May as a sound, happy horse. He was due to come back into the stable however the owner has elected to move him on, to concentrate on younger stock.

He is a nice big horse who covers the ground well and has a relaxed, easy-going attitude.

Weight: Approx 540kg

Height: 16.1hh

GST:100%

Location: Revelwood Stud / DPR Breaking, Somersby, NSW

Embargoes: No embargoes as of 1st June 2025
