Recommendation, 5yo gelding by Shalaa.
Exciting opportunity to get involved in a consistent racehorse who is a 5-time stakeswinner and multiple stakes placegetter.
Recommendation had a super prep in 2024, winning the G3 John Monash, G3 Bletchingly and the G3 Black Caviar before running in the G1 Manikato, G2 Schillaci and placing in the Listed Century Stakes. He concluded his preparation with a trip over to Hong Kong to race in the Sprint.
He returned to Australia in early January and has recently returned to training at our Fingal operation. We plan to have him up and racing at the back end of April and into the Winter.
Any queries, please get in touch with Ciaron Maher Racing.
