Description

He's Xceptional is a 4yo Xtravagant gelding with a career record of 21: 4-2-4 and a current VIC rating of 78.

As a 3yo, he won the Listed McKenzie Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley, defeating now multiple Stakes winner JIGSAW in the process. In more recent times, he was an all-the-way Flemington winner just three starts back over 1400m on 17/12/22.

He's Xceptional went to the paddock sound after a somewhat disappointing end to an otherwise successful racing preparation and is now being offered unreserved to dissolve his current ownership group.

Independent vet checks are welcome.

All of He's Xceptional's race form and replays can be accessed via Racing.com

*PLEASE NOTE: In reference to current/previous embargoes that need to be declared, He's Xceptional received a 'warning' for hanging in in February 2022. He has obviously since raced successfully with no further issue.
