Irrepressible Setteveli Solo

Setteveli was our 1st Group Ownership, a single horse. In his short 9 race career he has run two 1sts and a 2nd placing. During which time he was troubled by a nasal gland infection. Post operation, those days are behind this stoic, fleet footed gelding and after 8-months R&R at Riverstone Lodge to rebuild… he is due to embark on what we hope will be a very successful chapter 2 of his racing journey. On the back of his first race runaway win, the syndicate said no to a very large offer for him, several times what they paid. We are optimistic Setteveli will repay their faith going forward.

Setteveli

Setteveli is a four-year-old gelding who is very lightly raced.  He is by Astern out of stakes placed  Neapolitan.  Astern won over $1,100,000 in only 9 starts and is from one of the top families in the Australian Stud Book.  He is a half-brother to top race mare Alizee and stallion Tassort, who is also showing potential at stud.  His dam Neapolitan was a very fast 2 year old and is a daughter of the outstanding mare, Viennetta and a sister to G3 winner Golden Archer.

This family is full of black type horses that have been successful on the racetrack and in the breeding barn. Setteveli is a horse with a strong hind quarter, great gaskin and shoulder and is bred for speed.
