Owners regretfully offer this brilliant country galloper for sale. Has finished in the top 5 in 14 of his 18 starts, including a close 3rd at Randwick and two top 5 finishes in the Albury and Wagga Guineas behind multiple city winners. Very unlucky at last 2 starts. Went to paddock for 6 week freshen prior to targetting Albury and Wagga carnivals in 2012. Very competitive country galloper with more wins in him. Price negotiable contact 0437945482.
