GALEA WARRIOR

Our newest addition is a big package in every sense. He’s big in stature, big in racing experience having 40 starts, and big in exposure racing on 23 tracks between Victoria and Queensland in his career accruing just shy of 140k

Formerly trained by Shane Nichols in Victoria, he was transferred to Bob Burrow in Mount Isa and won 11 races. His feature Wins include The Maxwelton Cup and Les Huddy Memorial Bracelet. He also took his place in the prestigious Battle of The Bush and in 2018 travelled to Brisbane for this highly competitive race finishing only 3.5 lengths off the lead. Sadly he bled that day.

Remarkably, in his 28 starts with Burrow, Galea Warrior averaged a win or a second place only once finishing outside 4th 🤩

We have only heard what a beautiful kind patient horse Galea Warrior was during his career and a fun fact! ….He was once used as a clerk of the course mid way through a race preparation! Am sure he will be showing these same qualities in his next career.

@kr_eventing.tb_retraining will be the retrainer taking on his education and our sponsor @barastoc_horse and @1equine_au will be looking after his nutritional needs during this time.

We are so happy to give back to this horse who has given so much of his heart to racing 🙏
