Description

Selling at owners choice to move him on. Would make a nice country cups horse maybe up in North Queensland.

Suffered a tendon injury 2 starts ago when he got bumped by another runner. Vet described it as blunt force trauma so there is quite a bit of swelling around the tendon sheath. Would probably need 6 months off to settle it all down because continually working him every day is not going to help the bruising.

Has been on box rest since we pulled up stumps with him a week ago, so by the time this sale is on he will have had 2 weeks rest.
