Description

Vancouver Storm (Vancouver x Sophia Babe) - 16.1hh

Strong gelding with plenty of scope, and already a race winner!

Vancouver Storm is a half brother to 2 stakes performers who won up to 1800m and 2200m, this gelding will likely follow suit by improving with time and as he steps up in trip.

Still only a lightly raced Class 1 with excuses his last couple of starts, his new owners are sure to have plenty of fun with him.

Spelling since 29/12/2024
