Description

Fast As Steel is a sound, clean-winded, lightly raced 3-year-old Grey gelding by Better Than Ready the champion Australian first season sire (2018/19) by winners.

Fast As Steel has only raced three times including a provincial placing at the Sunshine Coast in February 2024 over 1200 metres.

However, he has not measured up to metropolitan grade in south-east Queensland and the owners are wanting to move him on.

This gelding should be very well suited to a provincial or country area to be trained and race.

He is a nice horse with no vices, very easy to train and handle.

He also has the added bonus of being QTIS eligible.

As with all horses offered for sale, we recommend all prospective buyers obtain an independent veterinary check before they bid.

Please contact admin@munceracing.com.au for any enquiries for the horse.
