Description

Phantom Dragon is a lightly raced 4YO gelding with a career record of 7:1-1-1.

He showed good potential in New Zealand earlier this year, winning his maiden over 1600m then contesting the Group 2 Avondable Guineas. After that run he was brought to Australia and he has been unable to reproduce the form he showed in NZ.

His first two runs in Australia were solid efforts and he proved he can be somewhat competitive at metro level, competing at Sandown Hillside he was only defeated by 3.6 lengths.

Racing in an easier jurisdiction can see him return to form and win more races for his new owners.

He is approx 16.1hh.

All inspections and enquiries are welcome.
