Description

Lightly Raced Rubick Gelding

Mind Game is a lightly raced Rubick 4yo gelding who has only recently started his racing career.

This big and strong gelding has developed extremely well physically, but mentally is still learning in terms of his racecraft.

Kicked off with two very good barrier trials including a trial win at Muswellbrook in late April, but yet to reproduce this trial form in his 3 race starts, and the owners believe he would be more likely to realise his potential in a weaker area.

His dam Beautiful Romance was an extremely tough race mare who won seven times from 1100m up to 1750m, and his sire Rubick already has a first crop Everest winner.

Mind Game is good to travel, shoe and tie-up.

Inspections and vet checks welcome.
