Van Dan
Ready to Start Racing

(GST status not known)
Van Dan is a very well put together power pack who is ready to run. He has been nicely broken in and well handled. His Dam is a race winning mare who shows characteristics of both her Grandsires, Danehill and Snippets. Byblos by Hussonet is a veteran stallion having been at stud since 2002 and producing race winning offspring, joining the long list of successful sires by Hussonet. The Danehill/Hussonet grandsons and granddaughters are producing excellent race results and the Brain Pedigree Analysis for this match produced a score of 130. This horse is for lease from the breeder. We are unable to race him ourselves as we have his full brother at the breakers and can't fund both to the track. Very reasonable lease terms available
