Description

Pedigree suggests he shouldn't have delivered what he did in his 1st prep as a 2yo, placing 2nd three times (1x in $150k Caulfield race behind $300k+ earner Snack Bar) and winning his maiden by 5L. Four horses out of his maiden went on and won, inc the 2nd horse Bancory Bay, since a winner in town.


*Had throat op procedure August 2024 and tipped out for a spell*.


So far has been effective over distances ranging from 1200m-1300m-1400m-1600m-1700m


3yo season hasn't been as electrifying as his 2yo season to date, however he's been more than thereabouts and far from disgraced himself. 3yo runs include:


*1.5L 7th at Seymour over 1422m in BM64 company.
*4.2L defeat at Sandown in BM70 company.
*3rd at Sale over 1717m in March 2025, beaten 3.65L.
*4th at Geelong 2 starts ago over 1400m.


Last start Wangaratta 5th July, may pay to forgive, stewards noted, "Signor Bill Raced keenly in the early stages. Near the 500m bumped with Mawhera and became unbalanced. Unplaced $2.70 favourite. Rider Will Gordon reported after being bumped heavily near the 500m his mount became unbalanced, lost its action and failed to respond to his riding. He added that as he felt something may have gone amiss with the gelding he elected to ease it down in the straight. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings".


*Stable notes:* "16:3hh -562kg approx. Had tie-back throat surgery August 2024. Sound - good temperament. Great looking horse - recently a little out of form and will appreciate a change of scenery".


Disclosures: Had tie-back surgery in August 2024.


"Marketing him until 13th July, so if you're interested text, email or buzz me to express your interest 1st, as he'll be definitely sold on 13th by close of 5pm".
