Description

Always Hunting is an extremely consistent, sound and genuine 4yo Gelding out of Group 1 winning NZ mare Veloce Bella (12 wins from 1200m to 2100m).

With 2 wins and 6 placings from his 15 starts and a NSW and QLD rating of only 59, he is perfectly placed to progress further in his next preparation. Always Hunting would suit a trainer targeting country cups and profiles as a Country Classic runner in the spring.

He is a lovely horse to deal with, has no known issues or vices, and is currently spelling after a successful 9 start campaign.

Our farm is currently overstocked and he is being sold as part of a general reduction in numbers.

Please call Peter Sinclair on 0419636593 for more information.
