Description

Determination is a lightly raced 4 year old gelding by Churchill (IRE), out of two time winning American mare, Forget The Weather (USA) who is the dam of three winners including BELLA VELLA; winner of 11 races including the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes.

Determination went to the paddock on the 14th of November for a spell after having a small amount of blood present on scope following a gallop. The ownership group have decided to move him on and concentrate on younger horses coming through to race at metropolitan level. Placed in an easier racing jurisdiction, and with a change of scenery, this gelding should provide new connections with some fun and certainly pick up lower graded races at provincial and country level.

Weight: Approx 520kg

Height: 16.3HH

GST: 20%

Location: Grand Parkview Stud, QLD

As with all horses sold on behalf of owners all efforts are made to disclose previous issues, we take no liability after the sale and suggest you do an independent vetting if required.
