Description
Regretfully reluctant sale.
Pilote is relatively lightly raced.
He suffered a suspensory injury in his early career and as a result he missed his late 3yo season. He was rehabbed and was fully fit to race again when he was mid 4yo in early 2021. . He broke maiden in his 11th start over 2080. His race record is 22 starts for 3-4-2. His wins have been incredibly dominant and in good times . Form around him has also been strong for subsequent races.
Half to Street Dancer, extremely well bred horse , he was a $350k+ Aquis yearling purchase and has paid up for the $1m Aquis race series in Brisbane carnival.
His best form is between 2000 and 2400 metres , but has shown the ability to come from the clouds first up over 1400 on numerous occasions .
He was to be running throughout this Winter, but unfortunately a setback occurred after his first up run, and he was sent back to his home away from home for some active rest and strength and conditioning work due to the following :
- date first identified: 13th May 2022
- affected leg: right front leg
- nature of issue/ injury: inflammation of medial aspect of body of suspensory ligament
- basic vet info: has been rested & managed with anti-inflammatory therapy since then
Further vet reports and Scan images will be available within the next 48 hours and attached to this sale..
He is currently undergoing aqua treadmill work .
He seems to be very receptive to sand/ beach work , but unfortunately repetitive fast work on the course is showing to give us some issues. He would be best placed with a beach trainer who can utilise the sand dunes for his training fitness and limit the track time to jump outs and races . We have found that to be the formula to get the best results with no issues.
He’s a beautiful horse and a real professional, and I sincerely believe that his best still in front of him, possibly in a weaker jurisdiction like QLD, SA or TAS . Most importantly - He absolutely loves his work , and I believe he still wants to be a race horse , and as a result he is being offered for sale as I’m no longer in a space to be able to give those opportunities to him due to current financial pressures.
