He's such a sweet horse.. Saratoga Advantage is his name. I have been trying to get help so I can get pictures, but haven't had any luck yet. He's definitely track thin though.
He's got what feels to me like an old (but tiny) osselet, that his race trainer had never even noticed, but I'm known to go over my sale horses with a fine toothed comb- so it could be no one else would notice it either- he definitely doesn't have any soundness issues, he ran every other week or so all year (and ran well), which is a pretty good sign that he wasn't sore or having issues anywhere .
He sticks at 15.3, is very well built, and is chestnut with some chrome.
He's a cute mover, nothing fancy, and it will improve as he gets better muscling. He'd make a nice Pony Club mount, as he's super quiet. Today was his first time doing something (he spent two weeks relaxing in the field)- on the long line with 4 horses in the little indoor being ridden as he was working. He never flinched or reacted to anything. Super quiet, very sane. Very sweet, follows me around in the arena without a lead if he's loose.
He is a favorite of his trainer's, and the trainer would really like to see him sold so that he doesn't have to go back to race (which he will if not sold).
Asking $1500.
When put on the long lines for the first time he took it all in stride and acted like he knew exactly what was going on. Very good and laid back boy.
