[glow=red,2,300]This is a cross post, please contact the lady below!!![/glow]
Hello please let me introduce myself. My name is Allan and I
need a home for a thoroughbred (details below). I am writing to you and
everybody I can find on the web to get the word out. Any help you can
provide would be gratefully appreciated.
I maybe in Florida
and you are far away but I bet you know more people than I do.
Thank you so much
I have a former race horse (3yr old thoroughbred) rescued
recently from Calder race track Florida.
Her last race was a couple of months ago. Her racing name was “Facebrook”, her
new name is Kishi Kame (Japanese Fortunate Tortuous)
She is approximately 15 1, with a very quiet disposition
(this would be the reason she lost every race). She is presently in care at a
facility near Hobe Sound. I have enough funds for a total of six weeks only,
but that is six weeks more than she would have had.
Regrettably after that time I have no other options. I am at
this time unemployed and my savings will only go so far, if in this six weeks I
can locate employment then she will be fine for a longer period. Otherwise I
have a vet that will euthanize for no charge.
At this time I can stipulate that she trailers very well no
fuss, feet are good she has been de-shoed and can be turned out with others.
She stands quietly and can be fussed over with halters, bridles and saddles.
Because of distance and cost of fuel she is worked only twice a week (weekend).
The rest of the time she is cared for with other boarders being turned out and
stalled alternatively. She is putting on weight nicely and is not shy of her
feed.
Work:
At the weekends she is put on lunge and long rein, working
well to the left as expected, the right is still foreign to her but she is
picking it up. She is ridden, walk and trot (only) alternatively, left and
right circles then figure eight alternate directions. She is at present a
little wooded to ride as to be expected. But she is not adverse to the work. We
use a regular snaffle with English tack.
She is not groomed during the week however on weekends she
is bathed and groomed feet are checked over thoroughly and she is massaged.
She will not make a polo pony, definitely not dressage,
possibly jumper, she will make a great trail horse (hacking), good for kids
with minor experience (in the hands of a decent trainer maybe a first horse).
The consensus is that she would be a good school horse.
I can, with in reason, foot the bill for transportation to a
new home.
