Counttheheadlights, 3yo gelding by I Am Invincible.
Brilliant on debut, winning the 2yo Open Handicap over 1200m at Moonee Valley, followed up with a 4th placing in the Blue Diamond Prelude, behind Lofty Strike, Semillion and Daumier.
Countttheheadlights is a good-looking horse with a great physical. He was an $800,000 Magic Millions Yearling with a super pedigree, being out of multiple group placed mare, Tahni Dancer and from the family of He's Xceptional, Xtravagant Star, Maschino and Kentucky Breeze.
He is being moved on as he no longer fits the profile of his current ownership group.
Respiratory Declaration - Counttheheadlights has scoped with a Grade 3 throat.
Whilst all efforts are made to disclose previous issues, we recommend that all purchasers undertake independent veterinary inspections.
