Ocean Park’s son a 3YO to follow
Nordic has made a highly encouraging start to his career and looks a potential stakes performer.
The Ocean Park three-year-old placed at his first two starts before his breakthrough success at Avondale.
Trained by Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman, he is part-owned by Waikato Stud.

There is also an international flavour to the pedigree with the presence of the European Group winners Pyrrha and Everything Nice.
