Description

THINK N FLY - Multiple metropolitan winner of five races, this son of SO YOU THINK achieved a career peak rating of 83 and was competitive in Group races as a 3 year old, and has now dropped to 72 which could see him being very competitive once again.

He is a 3/4 brother to the Group performed HOME MADE, with consistent form at 1400 - 1600 with his pet distance being a mile.

His current connections feel a change of environment will bring about the needed improvement in this horse, and despite three below par runs this preparation he has gone to the paddock fit, absolutely sound, and in excellent condition with the capacity for a long preparation ahead, should his new connections decide to race him soon after this sale.

He is an extremely good looking son of SO YOU THINK, stands a full 17HH, has excellent movement, and will likely make an exceptional equestrian horse once his racing career has come to an end.

This horse has been schooled and shown enthusiasm and an above average ability to jump so could be a potential jumper for next winter if kept in Victoria.

He is straightforward to handle, ride, travel and a pleasure to have in the stable.
