Veterinary Report - 07/09/2023Description
Union Gap, 5yo gelding by Redwood.
Lightly raced, Union Gap has had 8 starts for the stable including 2 metropolitan wins and a placing. He last ran at Warwick Farm on the 22nd of May.
He has shown good ability but has had mixed form of late and the majority of his ownership have decided to move him on to focus on their Saturday/Stakes class horses.
Union Gap had surgery to remove a chip in his left knee in September, 2023. Vet Report attached.
