Description

Land Speed is a lightly raced 3yo Exceed amd Excel gelding out of stakes-winning & G1 placed High Chapparal mare, Whispered Secret, and was a $400,000 yearling purchase from the 2023 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale.

With only 2 starts to his name, he is a horse with plenty of upside and will benefit from a change of jurisdiction, away from the competitve Metro NSW circuit.

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

All efforts are made to disclose any previous issues with the horses offered for sale. We suggest and welcome independent vetting if required.

Land Speed is available for inspection and for further information, please contact the stable.
