LOVELY REGISTERED PAINT GELDING - 7 years old, 16.0 hand tall
and a really elegant horse! This horse is a bit green under saddle as he has been used mostly as a lead pony at the
racetrack since October of 2008. He was also used for some trail riding and polocrosse prior to that, so hasn't had
a lot of "ring time." HAS LOADS OF POTENTIAL. Owner says he's way too nice to be ponying at the track
(AND I AGREE!) and he wants to downsize. I rode this guy myself today and totally loved him. He needs some tuning
up but was extremely willing and would make and awesome dressage horse or event horse, or even a hunt seat horse, but I like
his uphill forwardness for dressage (it's my thing). Flashy, solid chestnut with white RF and white LH socks and a stripe.
NEAT HORSE THAT IS A TOTAL STEAL for a nice, quiet, flashy horse. Priced at $2,800.00. Please
call HHF for more information. The horse is located at a small boarding stable in Grantville, PA.

What a handsome guy! 10 year-old TB gelding just retired from
racing on March 1st. Will make a nice project horse for someone! Big, handsome bay, with a beautiful head.
16.1 -16.2 hands. Was sold for $150,000 as a yearling and resold for $250,000 as a two year-old because he was so well
bred for racing....but in all these years he only made $65,000 so I guess he wasn't a great racing investment! He's
looking for a new job. Priced at only $800.00. Owner says he his sound and is a very nice mover and has no vices.
Please call HHF for more information and we will put you in touch with the owner.

See note below from the owner:
We currently have 3 horses and a second child on the way so I am going to need to part with my
QH (looks like an Appendix build). I'd have to find them, but I believe the name on her papers is Proud Gail and
if I recall correctly she was born April 1994. She is in very good health, up to date on shots, farrier, etc. Teeth were just checked in
Dec and again in Jan (when I had them back out to float the teeth on another one) and they said she is good for at least another
6 months and didn't need them floated. I've never really had a health problem with her and I have had her since 2002. One time
she got a belly ache when we got a new goat and she ate the hay that came with the goat, but I called the vet out, gave some
banamine and she was okay and one time when I first got her, she got a little swelling in her one back leg from too much sweet
spring grass (at the time neighbors were dumping their clippings in our field and I had to ask them to stop because that is
just not good for a horses digestive system, plus the toxic gases from decomposing grass, etc), but I haven't had any
issues with her since and the vet said the best treatment for any swelling like that from too much grass is RIDING her. When I bought her
they said she had been used at a camp for kids and they were starting to jump her. I have ridden Western because that's
what I'm comfortable with, but I do think she would do really well under English tack too. I also believe she has
had some ranch training on her based on seeing her interact with our fainting goats....she herds them sometimes when they
are all coming back into the corral and if one of them stiffens up or faints right in front of her, I have seen her do this
contortion with her legs so as not to hit them. I have also see people get on her and have her spin in circles on her
hocks....one thing is for sure, this girl has more training on her than I do...I wish I were at that level so I'm sure
I have at times given her confusing cues, but she is willing and does try to look for the cues and work with me. She is approximately
15.1 to 15.3 hands....seems to get higher the older I get! She is a beautiful copper sorrel with a smooth mane
and tale. The only reason
I am parting with her is the addition of another child and not being able to ride her, she is a good girl and gets along well
with other horses, I would not consider her aggressive at all (all of ours are bottom of the herd types) She is
good on the trail too, like I said, if she spooks at something it is a spook to the side and she stays and does not run off....and
the times it's happened, whatever had jumped out or flown out has made me jump too. I rode her on the battle fields
of Gettysburg about a year and a half ago and there were some really hilly and rocky trails and she did great, with a lot
of horses she didn't know, she was really good...they all seem to just LOVE the trail. We now have a round pen, but I have
mostly ridden her in an open field where she grazes and I have her do circles and she is pretty good. There were times
where this girl only got ridden once or twice a year (pregnancy takes up a lot of the year plus weather) and she might offer
a buck when asked to canter at first, but nothing much and never malicious. She is good for the vet, farrier,
teeth, LOVES grooming and thrives on love and attention. If someone would buy her and find that they lose interest in a few years, I would like the option
to buy her back (when kids are older). I would never want to see her go to an auction. She's a good girl and
deserves a good home where she will get lots of attention and riding.
