5 yo 16 hh tb gelding
If you’re looking for a super athletic gelding to take you to the next level, then take a look at this guy!
Athletic, charming and kind- hearted retired sound with no interest in racing. He is energetic under saddle but is gentle on the ground. He is suitable for any discipline

SECOND SERVICE

4 yo tb gelding 16.2 1/2 hh.

He has finished his rehab from a suspensory tear last June and is moving soundly at the walk. Second is a friendly guy but can be nervous in his stall. Under saddle he is well behaved and listens to his rider. Later this year, he should be able to handle any low level athletic type training.
A great option for those who want to take their time to get to know their partner and bring along in his training.

If you have had your eye on this guy, now is your time!
Imploding has finished his rehab and is doing great. He had his first ride this week and was well behaved and seemed to have fun. See video in our stories. He is a silly boy that likes to have fun with his friends and enjoy his days in the sun with his partner.
Check him out!

Hattie M, Briny Breezes and Cookie Jar are all ready to get started under saddle in a new job. Cookie Jar has had a bit of retraining over the last several months. Sweet Bobbie Sox still needs some rehab for a fracture but she is coming along well and will be ready to get under saddle in mid March!

Once it stops snowing/raining/freezing/icing -we will hop on and see how much potential they are going to have! 🥶

Well hello little one 🥰
Meet ARTHUR(24 Glorified)

https://secondstride.org/horse/24-glorified-arthur/

Arthur was not put into racing due to an offset knee. He is a sweet little guy that is learning how to be a horse. He spends his day with an older gelding and is doing very well. He will need time to grow, approximately December 2026, before he can be started. If you have the time and space for this little guy to bring up your own way he is available now to qualified applicants. He will be suitable for any discipline

STAR JUANCHO ❤️

https://secondstride.org/horse/star-juancho/

Everyday, Juancho lays down for an afternoon nap to get ready for his nightly turnout. In the cold, he has been choosing to nap in the hay pile. Sun or clouds, you’ll find him there. He will make a great campanion to any home. He is not rideable but is full of love and personality. Who has room in their field for a boy that just likes to nap?

Both boys have healed from injuries and are ready to hit the trails ASAP! Both are very kind to work with and are well mannered under saddle. Great boys to have in your barn and roaming around your farm!

Meet FAITHFUL KING 👑

https://secondstride.org/horse/faithful-king/

5 yo 16.2 hh ottb gelding full of kindness and love!
He retired in September with a suspensory injury that is now healed and he is back under saddle!
King is very respectful on the ground and responds well when under saddle. We haven’t seen any vices and he isn’t spooky! He is well behaved for the vet and farrier and gets along well with his pasture friends! A wonderful boy in all ways. He will make a great dressage prospect but is suitable for any flat work.
