Description

Close Talker is a very consistent race mare who may not have appreciated the wet track at her last two runs. Good race record 16-2:4:1 winning over 1000-1200m. Close Talker is low in the ratings and a change of environment will suit. Lightly raced and is capable of winning more races.

Approximate weight and height is 480kg, and 15.3hh, respectively.
