Description
Uptown Boy is a 4-year-old gelding by Savabeel out of the Group 1 winning Mastercraftsman mare, Valley Girl. This gelding is closely related to Group 3 winner and Group 1 placegetter Leigh Valley who has produced 8 foals to race for 4 winners.
Uptown Boy is lightly raced with just 6 starts to his name over 1500m-2400m. His best finish was over 2000m on a Soft track at Taree where he finished 4th. He appears limited and will be better suited to a less competitive racing jurisdiction.
Please see vet report attached re his LF SDFT (no lesion) and dynamic scope from 31st January 2024 which recommends tie back surgery.
If you would like to inspect him at Aristia Park or carry out your own vetting please contact Emma Coleman (ecoleman@gaiwaterhouse.com.au).
Approx 16HH 560KG
* Dynamic scope report attached – abnormalities of larynx and pharynx. Tie back surgery recommended.
* LF SDFT (vet report attached) horse can continue in work but needs to be carefully monitored
* Had knee surgery (vet report attached)
