Description

California Rock on is a 4yo gelding sired by champion sire FASTNET ROCK and is out the unraced GALILEO mare, DRAGON’S TAIL who is the producer of G1 winner and full brother AGE OF FIRE. He was a $400,000 2021 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale purchase.

Please see the attached vet report detailing his respiratory condition & note that he has raced without surgery. We have managed his wind with a Hanoverian Nose band with success & although he makes a noise, the track riders & jockeys don’t have any concerns with his breathing.

California Rock On is big strong magnificent looking horse that is 16.2hh and 580kgs. He has raced four times in Victoria and is yet to break his maiden. He hasn’t had the best of luck with barriers and seems that he would appreciate a firmer surface than he has been racing on. He is great horse to have around the stable and is good trackworker, but he hasn’t been able to transfer that to his racing as yet. With being such a big late maturing type, he will benefit from more racing and will be competitive in weaker racing jurisdiction such as country NSW or QLD.

There is no doubt that there is plenty of fun left in this horse & he is currently race fit and ready to go for his new owners.

The last two horses sold out of this stable have both gone on to win races, this horse won’t be any different. Only being sold due to reducing numbers and young horses coming through.

Please call for any further information you may require.
