Description
Nice staying type of horse. Owner is Singapore based and was hoping top send him up there with some Melbourne city form on his c.v. but he has fell a little short of that.
He would suit far North QLD or even in South Australia where I am sure he could run around in some Benchmark city class staying events .
He is sound with no known vices.
