Description
FOO FIGHTER has had a nice preparation getting to a well deserved win at his last start. He was good at metropolitan level 2 back, was a horror watch 3 back, and should have won a maiden before he did.
He is a QTIS eligible 3YO who is sound. He floats well, he is an easy ride and is a nice horse to do anything with. He is a lovely athletic horse with plenty of gate speed.
He is an obvious buy for country Queensland racing. He is sound and trouble free and we'd encourage you to inspect him yourself by arrangement.
