Description
Consistent 4-time winner and multiple Saturday metropolitan placegetter with a current benchmark rating of 73.5
Still lightly-raced for a 5YO gelding (18 starts) by sire on fire BETTER THAN READY (CHRYSAOR, SKIRT THE LAW, etc) and a nice quiet ride.
Won a Class 4 at the Sunshine Coast two starts ago however was found to have bled in his most recent outing at Doomben so won't be permitted to race for the mandatory 3-month period.
He's a big, strong type who is otherwise sound and tractable.
Form has revealed him to be most effective when kept fresh over 1000m and we recommend he be trained this way.
**Bleeders 28-Oct-2023 DOOMBEN O.Nieddu Bleed bilaterally - 3 month suspension, 1000m satisfactory gallop in presences of stewards.
