Description

Scorpion Bay is a beautiful son of Grunt, he presents himself extremely well and he is a lovely horse to do anything with.

Yet to break his maiden he ran a good third last preparation over the 1600m at Seymour. His performance this preparation has made his owners want to move him on to a weaker jurisdiction as he is not holding his place in a city stable. He would be a great addition to anyones stable looking for a consistent easy going horse.

Good to float, shoe, ride, strap etc.

As per SZR policy, this horse is offered under the rules of usual public auction.
