Description
December Sky is a lovely, quiet, 16 hh Kermadec gelding. Currently in full work, having raced at Newcastle last Saturday. He is an easy horse to handle, shoe, float and ride.
We feel he would be suited to a country stable where he can get away from the strong NSW provincials.
December Sky was only beaten 3 L at Newcastle 2 starts ago and was unlucky not to win at Taree in January.
