Manighar is an absolute champion and I love this 7 year old French gelding’s colour.  The greys and browns just mix into a beautiful blend that I just had to draw.

FOR SALE.  Coloured pencil on paper.
75cm x 55cm unframed.

This work is based on photos I took at Rosehill in early 2013 and I am hoping that I will be able to watch Manighar race in Sydney’s Spring Carnival later this year.

Manighar was bred by His Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV and spent his early career in France.  He was purchased by an Australian management company OTI part owned by retired legend Australian cricketer all-rounder and St Kilda footballer Simon O’Donnell.

He is trained by Black Caviar’s Peter Moody and now usually ridden by Luke Nolen
