Description

French Moon is being offered for unreserved sale and is a city class stayer who has won at Moonee Valley over 2500 metres but seeks a new environment to spark his interest in racing.

A six-year-old son of Puissance de Lune who is lightly raced with just 23 race starts, he is a sound gelding who is a pleasure to have around the stables and also won the Marong Cup in February.

His rating has now dropped where he is now eligible to race in easier company. Only last preparation does he boast form around Wuddzz, Mystery Island, Captain Envious and Mimi’s Award.

Please note French Moon bled prior to arriving to our stable in September last year but has shown no signs of ongoing issues since in our care.

French Moon last raced in the Murtoa Cup on October 7 and has since been spelling and is ready to go on with.
