Description

Fightertown is a quality 3YO gelding by Snitzel.

This lightly raced galloper is yet to show his best on the track and is still improving, so far in his career he has contested the six races for one win.

As a 2YO:

- Beaten on debut by Group winners Red Resistance and Steel City

- Contested the Group 3 Bailleu Stakes

- Finished only two lengths behind subsequent Group 1 winner King Colorado at Kembla Grange

As a 3YO:

- Returned a dominant winner at Warwick Farm over 1100m, running the best last 800m, 600m and 400m sectionals of the entire day.

- Second up, he can be forgiven, was near last in the run and ran on well late.

He offers an exciting opportunity for his new owners to buy a metro class horse with the potential to reach stakes grade.

All inspections and enquires are welcome.

Weight: 505 kg
