Trajan simply has one of the best brains of any OTTB I’ve had come through my program. I always tell people “buy the brain, buy the canter, the rest will come together.” This is the type of horse that will make anyone a thoroughbred lover.

3 year old 16hh (who still has a TON of growing to do because he’s a may foal) gelding by Classic Empire. Unraced and retired sound with clean legs. Excellent ground manners, loads great, gentleman on the cross ties and UTD. Super classy and laid back personality. Rides on the buckle, didn’t take a second look at anything his first ride in the big jump field after having some time off. If you’re looking for the type of gelding to feel safe and confident on to calm your nerves Trajan is your guy. Leg ride and very responsive and soft in your hands. I can confidently say I have never felt comfortable enough to canter on the buckle for any horses first ride off the track until this one came along. So confident in fact that I completely dropped the reins and extended my hands out WITH a dressage whip in hand. I see him being the perfect type for a young rider or nervous amateur looking to restart their first OTTB to bring along in the hunter or dressage ring. Please do not ask me if I have any videos of him jumping. He technically does not turn 3 until May, I have no plans on jumping him. If I have one more person ask me why he wasn’t raced, please just watch his video and you tell me. The second you take your leg off and sit deep in the saddle he comes back to the walk before you can use your hands at all. That won’t exactly work with jockey length stirrups. Aside from that, he comes from wonderful connections that could see it wasn’t what he wants to be doing. The head on this youngsters shoulders is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity for his next partner and I have a feeling he won’t last long before finding his person.

Stunning young gelding available for on-site half or full care lease in Ocala, FL.

🖤Jinxed🖤

6 year old 16.1 Imported tb gelding who was just approved in the blue book by the American Warmblood Association based on conformation and movement. This boy will turn heads wherever you go, he really has a presence about him I can’t even describe in words. Not for a timid or nervous rider, he is a lot of horse and can be intimidating until you get to know him. Absolutely no dangerous behaviors and no rear or buck. He is simply one of the most athletic horses I’ve had, has all the qualities I look for in an upper level horse. These qualities can be intimidating for some, but if you have big goals to jump the bigger tracks one day without the budget to match this is your guy.

🏅Olympic Runner🏅

2016 16.3 OTTB gelding by Gio Ponti. “Oliver” Retired sound after a very impressive racing career across the US and Canada. Earning well over half a million in purse earnings and a graded stakes winner, this wonderful boy shows so much potential in a second career. He is RRP Eligible and I’d love to make a deal work for someone looking for their next thoroughbred makeover mount. I can guarantee you will be on one of the nicest racehorses there that will certainly bring a lot of attention! Oliver has been lightly restarted after a well earned vacation post racing. He is currently turnout out overnight with 3 other geldings, he’s made it very clear to them that he is quiet a big deal and he should be respected. We like to say he’s the king of that paddock. (he’s earned that title with those stats) because he is top of the pecking order. UTD on all coggins, vaccines and goes in standard front shoes and is barefoot behind with no current maitnence. Excellent traveler, cross ties and great for vet and farrier. Oliver is very well behaved undersaddle and has never offered a buck, rear or spook. He would do best with a quiet and patient rider as he can be a little anxious at times when he doesn’t understand what’s being asked of him. He really thrives with kindness and patience on the ground and undersaddle while he transitions from a very long and successful racing career. Since being restarted he has shown three lovely uphill gates, offers a lead change in both directions and has been extremely willing over fences. I adored getting to gallop this horse durning his racing career and I’m so excited to see him thrive in his next adventure.

🎄Tiz Zen🎄

2019 Unraced Thoroughbred mare by Tiznow out of a Jimmy Creed mare. “Lily” has spent the last year showing locally in Florida with miles in the baby green hunters up to the .85 on the A circuit. She is very quiet on the flat with a lovely soft and round way of going and loves her job over fences. She is a very brave and bold type to the fence and would be best suited for a confident intermediate rider. Absolutely no stop or spook in a new environment would make a great junior or amateur mount for someone with big goals on a limited budget. Currently lives out 24/7 but does great stabling for shows. Barefoot, no maintenance, vice free, no old injuries and gets along with other horses in turnout.

Thrilled to be welcoming one of my favorite racehorse to our string! Welcome graded stakes winner “Olympic Runner” 8 year old gelding by Gio Ponti. Retiring sound after 41 starts and well over half a million in purse earnings all across the US and Canada.

There is no doubt the racing industry produces some of the most athletic, well broke, and affordable sport horses for amateurs and professionals. Learn to ride the thoroughbred and you can ride anything at all.

When Myra Utterback purchased off-the-track Thoroughbred Deceiving in November 2022, she wasn’t imagining she’d be competing in this year’s Hamel Foundation NHS 3’3″ Equitation Championship. But less than two years after the horse came off the track, the pair put in a solid round at the Na...

Sold 🇫🇷Meet Sirtaki (FR)!🇫🇷

4 year old 16.1hh lightly raced gelding by Kingsalsa out of a Forestier mare. Imported from France in 2023 making just one start in the US before retiring after 8 starts. I have nothing but great things to say about this incredible young guy. Retired sound from a short racing career, comes from excellent connections and it shows with how classy this horse is! Incredible work ethic with such a great head on his shoulders. I adored getting to ride him in training as racehorse and have been patiently awaiting his retirement. Sirtaki would be an excellent for an amateur rider with champagne taste that isn’t afraid to put the work in to have a fantastic partner in the years to come. Absolutely no vices in the barn or under saddle, perfect shipper, great in cross ties and a gentleman on the ground. Hopped off the trailer at his first off property experience and jumped a clear round in the a blue ribbon cross rail jumper division. Super brave in new environments with no prep. Easy keeper, UTD and ready to find his forever person that is willing to bring along one of the coolest TB’s I know!

One thing about me, I love a good Warmblood imposter🤩 Meet “Mana Kai” whose name translates to spirit of the ocean in Hawaiian language. Kai is a 4 year old massive bodied 16.2 OTTB gelding by Chitu. Lightly raced with only 4 starts retired from racing early this year and has been enjoying some let down time for the last few months before being professionally restarted. This is a horse I personally broke myself prior to his racing career and I’m so excited to have him back with me to begin his second career. That being said, he has an excellent foundation for his age with no spooky behavior, buck or rear and will be an easy restart for a junior or amateur working with a trainer. He has had a handful of rides off the track making him RRP eligible while we focus on getting him back in shape from his layup period. Excellent ground manners, fantastic shipper. Retired sound and UTD on everything. We did notice some slight effusion on the left knee that was x rayed before he was started back undersaddle and I’m happy to share those with serious inquiries. He was positive on only that flexion and may be one that requires maintenance down the road. He is sound with no maintenance currently. Not only does this boy physically have the warmblood look, but his big lofty step and presence undersaddle are very impressive for one so recently off the track. I will be extremely picky about who is lucky enough to end up with this guy and I cannot wait to see his progression in the years to come.
