Description

Taking Charge has shown early promise at trials but it has been decided to disband the partnership as he was bought as a "Ladies Syndicate" horse at Magic Millions and didn't make it to the Gold Coast.

He has shown good speed in his trials and would make a handy horse for a country stable.

Replay attached of his recent trial win on Dec 17.
