Description

LIMELIGHT is the 4yo son of European Champion NEW APPROACH who's Group One progeny are best over the middle distances.


He is a Big Unit who has followed his sire on looks. He possesses good early speed and looks suited to racing up front where he can stride freely.


His 1280m run on the 26th of May on the Acton track is the perfect example sitting outside the leader hitting the front in the straight and just nabbed late on the post.


LIMELIGHT was a little underdone in his last start stepping up from 1000m to 1512m with 3 weeks between runs and looks a big improver next time out.


For more information please contact Dani.
