Description

Taipan Legend is a lightly raced 3YO gelding by Written Tycoon. He was a $150,000 select sale yearling.

He has raced at Sydney metropolitan level and placed at the provincial level in NSW. He is yet to win his maiden and can no doubt win races in an easier jurisdiction. He has a terrific racing pattern on speed and has finished in the money every career start.

Taipan Legend last raced on the 24/05/2024 at Goulburn and ran sixth. He is rock hard fit and can continue to race on this preparation and be competitive.

All enquiries and inspections are welcome.
