Description
This 3yo gelding placed twice in Sydney in each of his first two starts but needs time, being from the Sadler’s Wells line, to realize his full potential and may also benefit greatly by a step down to provincial company. He is beautifully bred, being by Vancouver’s sire Medaglia d’Oro (sire of 150 SWs) and a half-brother to Co-World Champion Sprint Mare Shoals (3 Gr1 wins) and the Gr1 Caulfield Guineas-placed Groundswell, hailing from the family of Redoute’s Choice. He is bred on the same cross of his sire over a Mr. Prospector-line mare as Champions Rachel Alexandra (5 Grade 1 wins), Songbird (9 Grade 1 wins) and Golden Sixty (3 Group 1 wins in Hong Kong).
He has pulled up well following his run on the 21st April and has since headed to the paddock awaiting his sale.
He is a sound racing proposition.
Temperament: He has a lovely attitude and is easy to do anything with in his track work and around the stables.
