Description
A lightly raced three-year-old gelding by Royal Meeting, Rushdown has only had the two race starts in Queensland prior to being transferred to our stable.
He had a jumpout recently and didn’t show enough ability for us to feel confident that he will make a city class horse and therefore the owners have decided to move him on as they have a number of younger horses coming through.
He is a sound horse and would be a welcomed addition to any country stable with a slightly weaker racing jurisdiction.
He went to the paddock on the 15th of January 2025 as a sound horse.
Weight: 495kg
Height: TBC
GST: NIL
Location: Oak Ridge Stud, The Oaks, New South Wales
Embargoes: No embargoes as of 1st January 2025.
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.
