His Reg'd name is Formal Style. If anyone can look up his equiline and tell me what his breeding is like Id love you forever.
I usually have one OTTB kicking around.. lol. But have not for awhile. He has his issues.. (like knowing his size!) but I am hoping he can make a good riding horse. I retired my mare on Saturday, maybe he can be my new games horse :P Kidding!
Aside from the bucked shins, bad feet, and small chip, hes a great horse. I cant wait to stick him. Hes got to be 16.3... Sheesh!
I talked to a gallop girl at the track who actually wintered this horse, and he was pasture kept. She said she rode him a few times over the winter, and that he was an easy ride on and off the track. When I was talking to her some guy walked over a gorgeous sorrel with big blaze and was like $500! I was like.. hmm bye Charlie ! LOL I am a sucker for reds, but Charlie needs more work so I took him.
He has an un-dying love for the one big willow tree at the front of the pasture.. Its totally Bizarre. none of the horses have buddied up with him as of yesterday, so we will see.. He is a total putz.. I cant wait to teach him to move out collected, and get him knowing where his legs are. Ill probably winter him, and get him going as a Hunter next year, and work on basic dressage stuff this year. Not till later though, Gonna make him a sturdy trail horse first off
***HELP!** For later reference.. I will get you pics of his bucks, but is it best to wrap bucks for work or leave them be? I have always dealt with bows..
Thanks for the Kudos.. I am sooo depressed right now retiring April my personal big mare. I was trying to make her my games horse.. and on saturdays show she just shut down.. she always looks miserable there.. and just wanted nothing to do with it.. SO I left her home for sundays and took our upgrade mare from WA. That was interesting. THe most herdbound horse ever did not want to move uop the arena.. Ugh.. By the 5th event we placed though.. yay!
