Description
Gitalong is a 4 year old gelding by leading sire Zoustar, out of the Epaulette mare Khulaasa.
Lightly raced, he has a record of 3-2-1 from only 14 starts and his three wins were in succession over the over 1000 metres.
A proven sprinter he has form on both the Sydney and Melbourne metropolitan tracks and he has won over $275,000 in prizemoney.
He is a lovely horse with a good nature who is very easy to do everything with and a real pleasure to have around the stables.
Gitalong has been well looked after and has plenty of racing upside, but we feel he would benefit from a change of scenery and is being sold with No Reserve to dissolve the partnership.
Height: 16.1 hh
Weight: 576kg
