Description

Frank Express, a four-year-old FRANKEL gelding, is lightly raced with only 7 starts with two wins at 1600m to 2100m and a second in his last preparation. He is capable of running on both good and heavy tracks.

With a highly useful NSW rating of 63, he could suit both Country and Provincial racing. Currently in training coming off a trial win at Hawkesbury on the 8th of July, he would be an ideal horse for targeting a Big Dance Eligible Country Cup before aiming towards the $3 Million race in November. Alternatively, if acquired by a country stable, Frank Express would be very competitive in the Highway Race series.

We have made the difficult decision to offer him for sale only to make room for a large number of rising two year-olds entering the stable shortly. Don’t miss out on this extremely rare offering, with only a small handful of tried horses by FRANKEL offered for sale over the past year.

In Training weight: 449 kg. The captioned horse has a clean veterinary while in our care. He is sound and clean winded and in full training at the present time.

Inspections by appointment are more than welcome. Please don’t hesitate to contact Bala Walsh at balawalsh@domeland.com.au or 0481 577 556 with any enquiries.
