Description

Three-year-old gelding that has won one race in his six starts.

He has been beaten less than a length in two of his last three starts and was beaten 5 lengths as a $2.80 favourite at Bairnsdale on Monday. He has pulled up sound following that start and is being sold to dissolve the partnership.

We believe he is a gelding that has plenty of racing ahead of him and will win more races in an easier jurisdiction like South Australia or Queensland.

Height - 15'3hh

Weight - 472kg

If you have any further questions, we would prefer if you texted rather than calling.

As per Anthony Freedman Racing policy, this horse is offered under the rules of usual public auction. Veterinary records remain the property of Anthony Freedman Racing.
