Description

EXPLOSIVE DRAGON is well built son of SPIRIT OF BOOM out of the HIDDEN DRAGON mare, SASSY DRAGON.

He has had 9 lifetime starts, for one win, a 2nd and two 3rd placings.

He is a good natured gelding and is no problem to deal with on the ground, but does need a competent rider as he can be strong on the track. He is a good eater.

He is a horse that still has plenty of upside and he may also benefit from a smaller stable environment and and racing at provincial or country level.

He was last seen racing on the 5th of April at Toowoomba and he was sent straight to the paddock after this run. He could come straight back in to work for his new owners or continue to spell.

He is being sold as he is not up to the Metropolitan level that his ownership group require.

He stands 16.1hh and weighs 522kgs.

Embargoes: No embargoes as of the 16th of April 2025.

Whilst all efforts are made to disclose previous issues, we take no liability after the sale and suggest you do independent vetting if required.
