Description
Gambu is a 4yo gelding by Redwood who has won 3 races from 17 starts with a further 2 minor placings. He is a tractable galloper who has won between 1350m-2400m.
He has been a high-quality racehorse since arriving into the stable as a two-year-old, giving his riders a great feel since day one. Gambu handles all conditions, winning all 3 of his races on good, soft and heavy surfaces. With a benchmark rating of 62 in NSW, he will be well suited to an easier jurisdiction.
He went for a spell following his latest start on the 14th of June and the decision has been made to move him on unreserved.
He is a sound straightforward easy gelding to do anything with and he will be a welcome addition to any stable.
