(GST status not known)
Race fit and very sound gelding here with accrued Prizemoney and serious form.Terrific sort by Zeditave who on his day can really gallop.Pass any inspection or test.Nice horse this one to get ready for the carnivals.A special to deliver in my opinion....all the horses out of this stable go on as they are very well looked after and in top condition.Genuine sale here as Owners race only city class Saturday horses and this bloke is a length or two off them.Won his trial then franked that form with a nice effort for 3rd at the Gold Coast first up.Broke track record last start and drilled a good field..Cannot go wrong with this horse as he is very sound and very competitive.
