Description

RAN FRIDAY, YOURS TODAY.

Another encouraging performance Pakenham 1200m Synthetic, only beaten 3.75 lengths into 5th in a busy bunch for the placings. Rider Robbie Dolan reported horse didn’t quicken at the 1200m to take gaps in the straight and should have run second, so plenty to like moving forward. You can see race replay and details here: Race 3 - Sportsbet-Pakenham Synthetic - Fri 03 Jun 2022 | RACING.COM

He is a lovely largely untapped gelding in the middle of a full racing preparation ready to go on with in a new stable. The owners are looking to rationalise their racing portfolio, keen for metropolitan class horses, but this boy still has plenty to offer.

He is only lightly raced, just seven starts for two encouraging placings and the Pakenham run surely highlights a coming win.

He is in great health and race fit obviously, has pulled up fine from Friday, so he suits the buyer keen to go racing straight away with a sound well natured gelding.

He is a magnificent type, the most expensive son of the War Front stallion Air Force Blue at the 2020 Magic Millions sales. Her mother is a sister to the champion race fully MOSHEEN.

He tips the scales at around an athletic 480kg.

No embargoes.

Whilst all effort is made to disclose any previous issues, of which there are none of concern, we would recommend independent vetting if so required.
