Description
Another Peters Investment opportunity to purchase a magnificent Cups hope.
17h Black/Brown gelding 580kg with impeccable temperament a real gentlemen to do anything with, anyone can ride him he’s that quiet.
Had a first up star last week in the Seymour Cup over 1600m where he was held up on the point of the corner and ran home nicely on a leaders track.
We are very disappointed to be losing this horse but we must make room for younger stock coming through.
His form shows he wants distance & he is now ready to take on any Cups or staying races in Australia from 2000m to 3200m.
He is a Perth Cup & Ascot Gold Cup winner, these horses don’t come around very often.
He has had an extensive vet test, including X-rays, scope flexion tests and past all.
