Description

Military Men is a sound, clean-winded, lightly raced 3-year-old Brown gelding by Air Force Blue (USA) out of the Group 1 producing mare Memories of You (IRE). Progeny from Memories of You (IRE) include Unforgotten winner of the ATC Oaks over 2400m and also Yiyi a 4YO competing very well at Sydney metropolitan level.

However, as yet he hasn’t measured up to metropolitan grade in south-east Queensland and the owners are wanting to move him on.

This gelding should be well suited to a provincial or country area to be trained and race. He is a straightforward horse, a good type and a pleasure to train.

As with all horses offered for sale, we recommend all prospective buyers obtain an independent veterinary check before they bid.

Please contact admin@munceracing.com.au for any enquiries for the horse.

Height: 16hh

Bonus Scheme nominations: He is BOBS Silver, BOBS Platinum, BOBS Gold eligible
