Sleeper(NZ) is a lightly raced 5YO gelding by Group 1 winning sire RIP VAN WINKLE, and has had a win and a placing from only 10 starts.
He was purchased out of New Zealand as a middle distance-staying prospect, however he has not been progressive since arriving in Australia and given his ownership group prefer racing city class horses he is being offered for sale to continue his racing career in a weaker jurisdiction.

He presents as an ideal opportunity for someone looking for a straightforward racehorse with wet track form.
Sleeper has some soundness issues that require maintenance in training. Therefore, we recommend potential buyers to conduct an independent veterinary assessment.
