Description

Fighting McLaren is a smart 5yo gelding by Fighting Sun. He is only lightly raced but has shown plenty of talent winning 5 races and placing 3 times from just 11 starts. Two of his wins have come at Saturday metropolitan level.

He is a sound and well conformed gelding with a good attitude and a will to win. Our syndicate is coming to a closure which is the reason for this regretful sale. He is up to Metro Sydney and Melbourne racing on his form. He would suit to continue to be trained in any metro stable as we feel he is still yet to reach his full potential. He would be a great buy for anyone looking for a metropolitan horse ready to get straight back to the races for them.

**Please note, the location of this horse has been updated from NSW to SA. The vendor has advised that they are happy to assist with the transport cost given the new location.
