Physical Notes
A strong, well-balanced colt with all the hallmarks of a sharp two-year-old. He was a standout purchase of the year — my pick of the sale — and pairs athleticism with a terrific attitude and professional mindset.
Progress Notes
This colt is currently in work at our Eagle Farm stable. He has already completed even-time galloping and barrier education, showing nice progress with each step.
He’s a quick learner who handles his work well, taking everything in his stride with a professional attitude. He had a jumpout late-January and will be ready to head to the races this preparation.
