Harzwood
Trained by Gary & Josh Moore
FORM – OR –
"A lovely addition to the yard and he's by a sire we've had great success with before. He was impressive in his point which was pleasing. I'm looking forward to starting his career in bumpers, one to look forward too." Josh Moore
On debut, this 4-y-o gelding produced an extremely
impressive display when winning comfortably by six and a half lengths at
Ballindenisk. He was always travelling strongly and jumping soundly at the head
of affairs. In the latter stages Harzwood’s sharp turn of foot proved decisive
as it allowed him to stylishly quicken clear of his rivals from two out under
hands and heels riding. It was a performance that created a striking impression
so we were keen to make a purchase when seeing his name in the Tattersalls
(Fairyhouse) May Sale.
There is no doubt Harzwood has all the attributes needed to
have a very successful career under rules. A horse we adore and one that looks
to be a gorgeous staying chaser longer term.
