HARD TO READ (GB)

3yo Chestnut Gelding

D.O.B: 03-May-2019

by ULYSSES (IRE) from QUEENS PARK (FR)

Summary: 1-0:0:0 Prizemoney: $700

Lightly raced European bred 3yo gelding by Ulysses currently in training and ready to race on for the winning buyer

Hard To Read has only raced once that being on the 19th May at Pakenham over 1200m.

Hard To Read is a good looking, athletic gelding that stands approximately 16.0hh and weighs approximately 538kgs. The strong 3yo gelding is a pleasure to have around the stable and is easy to shoe, float and handle. Hard To Read would be better suited in a provincial or country environment for his future racing.

The gelding is being sold as he hasn’t reached the metropolitan level required by his owners and is available for inspection or vet examinations at Danny O’Brien Racing, 1300 Barwon Heads Road Connewarre before the conclusion of the online auction.

For further information or to book an inspection please contact Luke Wilkinson on 0413 489 736.
