Description

Superstitious is by Champion sire SNITZEL from a daughter of HEART'S CRY. HEART'S CRY is the broodmare sire of Gr 1 Blue Diamond Stakes winner TAGALOA.

Superstitious is paid up for the Magic Millions race series and BOBS.

He's still a maiden but he certainly won't be for much longer.

He was 4th on Wednesday at Hawksbury in a race where conditions in running didn't suit. Placed at metro level at both starts prior to that both at Canterbury, he was beaten only 0.44 of a length on 19th Jan and looks to have plenty of upside.

Offered for genuine sale as ownership group reducing numbers of older stock with yearlings coming through the system.

TFI makes no guarantees to the current of future soundness of this horse.
