Description

Savvy Lad is a 5yo consistent middle-distance/staying type with an overall career record of 19: 4-2-1.

Acquired from New Zealand following two impressive victories in the spring of 2019, Savvy Lad competed at Saturday metropolitan level on arrival. He dropped back to BM64 grade and won over 2025m at Cranbourne in April 2021. He then took the step to BM78 level at his next outing over 2080m and won again.

Having now reached his mark, his current ownership group are electing to concentrate on younger stock coming through the ranks.

Savvy Lad is easy to handle (with no vices) and has several seasons ahead of him with further wins in store.

All of his race form and replays are accessible through Racing.com

Happy to take calls to provide further information for genuine enquirers.
