Description

Heroic Chief is a race fit, sound and consistent galloper who has missed the Top 5 just three times since joining our stable!

He is a versatile performer with his victory coming over 1000 metres on synthetic from a midfield position but has finished close-up on heavy 10 ground and up to as far as 1400 metres when leading.

Heroic Chief is an easy to deal with son of Rubick whose starting price has started $10 or less in his last six starts and only once was beaten more than 3.35-lengths suggesting he is close to a win.

Rated 54 in Victoria and is just shy of breaking through in strong provincial races and would be suited to a weaker racing jurisdiction.

Please note he did bleed at Geelong in March 2023 and was spelled and had no issues since.

Genuine unreserved sale – being sold to make way for new stock.
