t h e b a s i c s
Registration Number: #1342
Registered Name: Gallant Knight
Nickname: Knight
Age: Three years (Y10)
Breed: Thoroughbred
Colour & Markings: Chestnut
Height: 17.0hh
Gender: Colt
Personality:

Knight is very full of himself, and he loves a challenge. He puts one hundred percent into every race and never gives up, even after he's crossed the finish line. While he's not aggressive, usually, Knight doesn't know his own strength at times and can be rough with people and other horses, and needs a strong, confident handler. Off the track, he's much the same. Full of himself, strong and a typical boy who likes to play rough.

Pedigree: News Flash x Gallant Queen
Pedigree Comments:

News Flash was a grade one racehorse who retired with a record of 54-16-9-18. He was very versatile, able to run in sprints or marathons and anything in between on either surface. He is the sire of G1 Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes winner Flashy Wings. Not much is known about Gallant Queen.

Race Record: 9-1-0-5
Grade: Five
Surface: Dirt
Distance: 9-12 Furlongs
Leg Type: Midpack
Racing Style:

Knight likes to be amongst everything. He likes to rocket out of the gate, then hang back until everyone catches up, and then gets into position on the rail in mid pack. He then just runs along quite happily until the final three furlongs, where he either shoots through gaps or drops back and goes wide and closes strongly for the win.
