Description

This 16 hand gelding is a cousin to the recent Archedemus and Mandylion out of the family that produced several Melbourne cup, Caulfield Cup, Cox Plate, and Derby winners like Viewed, Battle Heights, Sky Heights, Weekend Hussler, and many more.

This 4yo gelding I am told is good over jumps and would suit someone in Melbourne looking for a jump horse. He is sound, has a good action, good wind and just starting to fully mature.
