ESSKAY

3yo Bay Gelding

D.O.B: 30-Aug-2020

by REAL STEEL (JPN) from LACEY LONHBREAK

Summary: 9-1:1:2 Prizemoney: $55,590

*** Racing this Saturday 25th May at Wodonga over 1400m***

Metropolitan winning 3yo gelding for sale.

Esskay (Real Steel) is currently in training with Danny O'Brien at Flemington and has raced four times this preparation and is very consistent.

He started off this preparation with a 2nd placing at Bendigo over 1300m. Then finished 3rd at Pakenham over 1400m and third at Bendigo over 1500m.

Esskay's most recent run was out of character where he finished 10th at Caufield in a race where we feel he did too much work to be close to the speed. He also raced on the inside which proved to be inferior going as the meeting progressed, and this told late in the event.

As a 2yo Esskay was a Sandown metropolitan winner at his first start over 1300m.

Esskay is easy to have around the stable. He floats, swims and shoes without issue. We feel Esskay has more wins instore during his career and is only being sold to make way for new yearlings for his current ownership.

Esskay is available for vet inspections before the conclusion of this auction. To arrange and inspection or vetting please contact Luke Wilkinson on 0413489736.
