Nomadic Way
Bay TB 16hh 1985
Dual Gr.1 Winning Hurdler of Over £300,000

Nomadic Way, a champion hurdler and a leading UK national hunt sire. Nomadic Way is a good looking horse; very tough and genuine. Throughout his career Nomadic Way ran 39 times - a total of 83 miles on the track, winning 10 races and placed in 23. Incredibly brave, he stood the test of time - a rare feat these days. From limited opportunities at stud, he is siring big scopey stock.
