Haradasun

Bay 2003 16.1hh (1.65m)
Fusaichi Pegasus - Circles Of Gold
Distance won over: 1100m to 1600m.

Haradasun is a brilliant triple Group 1 winning miler. A champion 3yo with race earnings of nearly $2.5 million from the legendary Mr Prospector sire line.  He is out of Group 1 winning Circles Of Gold and is a half brother to 5 time Group 1 winning champion Elvstroem. Haradasun scored impressive back to back victories in two of Australia's most important races over a mile - the Group 1 George Ryder Stakes and the Group 1 Doncaster Handicap. He beat the cream of Europe's older milers when winning the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot.

"This horse has the world at his feet." Glen Boss, jockey

Fee for 2008: $55,000
