Sarerra - war horse!


What an old war horse the mighty Sarrera is, aged nine the tough and classy gelding at only his second run this campaign rattling home for a gutsy second to Daffodil in Saturday’s Gr.1 Windsor Park Plate at Hastings.

Right on track for a crack at the Gr.1 Kelt Stakes before heading back to Melbourne for the Caulfield Cup or the W.S Cox Plate, the stable favourite really found the line well – beaten a mere long neck.
 
An eight times winner of over $1.2 million – and twice successful at Gr.1 level – Sarrera is a remarkable galloper who never lets any set back defeat him.

At three he suffered from a bowed tendon whilst being aimed at the VRC Derby. Later on a severe attack of colic nearly claimed his life and if that wasn’t unlucky enough a cancerous growth required the removal of several metres of his colon.
 
And then last year stablemate Mission Critical gave him a mighty kick in the side – broken ribs and a badly bruised and bleeding spleen the result. Close to death that time, Sarrera bounced right back – this is a real ‘never say die’ horse!
 
Paul Moroney has enjoyed having Sarrera in the NZ stables – “I am delighted to have him back,” he enthused.
