Belieber has star billing in December Online Sale

Media Release - Friday December 11

A horse that Gai Waterhouse considers “one of the most talented 3YOs racing in Sydney”, 3YO Belieber (Zoustar), heads an impressive line-up in the Inglis Digital December Online Auction, which is now open for bidding.

Belieber

The progressive gelding is lightly-raced having had just four career starts, including a tough 4th on debut as a 2YO in the G3 Breeders’ Plate, despite racing wide and without cover, plus an impressive all-the-way victory at Wyong last month over 1100m, where he clocked 33.18 for the last 600m.

His last start effort on December 4 saw him carry top weight when finishing 0.2L second to talented Godolphin 3YO Tiny over 1100m on the Kensington track in a field made up exclusively of winners.

Belieber, who is qualified for Hong Kong under a PP Permit, has been fully vetted in accordance with HKJC guidelines with information accessible through the Inglis repository.

"He is a natural speed horse and being a gelding makes him an attractive racing prospect ” added Waterhouse of the gelding who is fully paid-up for the Magic Millions Race Series and is offered in the December catalogue by Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott Racing.
