Kyla’s Harmony, 6 year old 16.1 h bay mare

What a beauty – wouldn’t you love to have this face greet you every day in your barn? With her uphill build, deep chest, sloping shoulder, strong hind end, and balanced build, this mare looks like she could excel in any discipline.  And she’s a lovely mover to boot! Kyla is described as a good girl, easy to handle, no vices, and sound.  She has run often this year, but without the success she enjoyed in the past, so it is time to find her a new career where she can excel.  She has the quality of looks and movement to be a show hunter, or the athleticism and build for eventing or dressage.  Her pedigree is excellent for jumping potential, as she comes from the Wild Again/Icecapade sire line, and her dam is by Dixieland Band.  There is no Storm Cat or Mr. Prospector blood in her pedigree. A real bargain here!

Nearly There, 7 year old 16.3 h bay gelding: retained for racing

Stunning big flashy blood bay, and a gorgeous mover. His trot is light and lofty with a lovely cadence and reach. We see serious potential for dressage, eventing or show hunters here.  Although he is currently running well – indeed he won the day before we took his photos – Nearly There’s owner knows it is time to move him on to a new career while he is still sound. Note that one hind leg was wrapped simply because he had a small scrape from the race the day before, but it did not affect his soundness at all. Nearly There is relatively lightly raced for a horse of his age, so there is not a lot of wear and tear on him. He is described as sound and good to handle with no vices. He was very well behaved for his photo session despite a cold and blustery day that set many other horses on edge, and our jaws just dropped when he trotted off for his jog video.  We were all looking at each other saying “Wow, what a mover!” Excellent jumping potential in his sire’s pedigree, with Halo, Stop the Music and Hail to Reason close up.

Silverado, 9 year old paint 15.2 h gelding

Silverado has been used this year as a race horse pony horse at the track (i.e. a horse who accompanies race horses to the track for morning exercise or racing, to keep them calm) but he did not like the commotion of people jumping around in his face and shouting, so he has recently spent more time in the pasture than working. His owner wants to make some room and knows he is happiest when he has a job. She has told us she got him from a boy scout camp program, so he is obviously kid friendly. But he is also a big powerful flashy mover with an amazing trot and we even think he could be a dressage horse! He’s a nice, solid guy, and will take a bigger rider than his size might lead you to think,  and he is also described as great on trails. This eye catching fellow also has some miles in the ring at w/t/c and doubles as the trainer’s lead line horse for a small child. Because he has not done much work for a while, he will need some retraining by an experienced person but then he should be kid or pleasure trail riding ready.

Mr. Reese, 4 year old 15.3 h bay gelding

Adorable – we all fell for the sweet and cute Mr. Reese.  His owner and groom attested to what a nice boy he is, but he is just not cut out to be a race horse. Well put together, clean legged, sound, and a nice mover, surely he will excel in many other disciplines.  He was very friendly and quiet for his photo session and jog video, and was eagerly looking around for treats.  He is described as sound with no vices. This is a horse you can fall in love with and take in any direction. He is likely to grow a bit more before he fully matures, and he is solid bodied enough to take up the leg of a taller rider.

Majestic One 5 year old 17 h. chestnut gelding

:Maj, aka “Big Red”, is an impressive fellow. He is easily 17 hh, and very big boned.  We refer to him as the Gentle Giant.
Update 10/28/13 – Available once again after his connections are finally convinced that this big boy is not suited to racing. Horses of this size don’t come around often. By Raffie’s Majesty, Maj has been his owner’s pet project since he was a yearling. Maj is nicely proportioned, easy to work around and, in his owner’s words, “wants to be a good boy and do everything asked of him”. Lest you think he is too big to get out of his own way, Maj is a truly beautiful mover. He is agile, athletic and surprisingly light on his feet. This writer’s daughter had started retraining him on a local farm and attests that he is wonderful to ride and a quick learner. The possibilities with this guy are endless.

Gee’s Money Boy, 8 year old 16.2h dark bay gelding

This handsome solid bodied guy is a much loved homebred, raised by and always in the care of his trainer. He has a dignified elegant demeanor, and is described as quiet and excellent to handle.  He has been ridden on trails and in a western saddle all around the farm, and should make an excellent pleasure and trail horse.  He has an old knee injury, where a chip became calcified, but he has been racing on it regularly — and raced the day before his photo session. Because of this, his owner/trainer recommends that flat work, pleasure and trail riding rather than jumping would be best for his favorite boy. A very good home is essential!

Holy Spice, 6 year old 15.3 h gray mare: retained by owner

A beautiful daughter of the great Holy Bull, who is known for producing horses who are good movers and jumpers with great temperaments. She has solid bodied well balanced conformation and a quiet friendly personality. She was described as a polite quiet ride with no vices. The trainer says she has old osselets in one ankle, but it has been x-rayed and there are no chips or other issues. She had just raced two days before her photo session, and was still feeling some effects of the race, but despite that in her jog she showed the potential for very nide flat kneed trot movement.  This lovely gray girl could go in many directions, from broodmare to show hunter, or your all around pleasure horse.

Montecore, 7 year old, 16.2 chestnut stallion: new price!

The solid bodied and impressive Monty has been a highly successful race horse; he is stakes placed and has earned over a quarter million dollars on various tracks. He showed speed as a two year old and he sold for $400,000 at the two year old sales. He has been on stall rest since sustaining a non-displaced sesamoid fracture last spring. His vet said that he would eventually heal and could race once again, but his connections choose not to take any chances with their special boy. On the day we saw him, he had every excuse to blow up after not being out of his stall and the blustery, gusty weather, but he stood quietly for his owner/handler. He is a solid beautifully conformed boy, has the lovely deep, colt neck and is described as being kind and nice to handle. He has not shown any studdish behaviors and is currently stabled with fillies and mares. His owner believes that he might be a sire for sport horse or Appendix QH breeders to consider. He also has enough pedigree and speed to be a worthwhile investment for breeding to race. The owner would love to keep her beloved Monty but there is already one stallion on their small farm and she sadly offers him for sale.

TheGirlsOnFire, 16 hh 3 y.o. bay filly

If you like dark bays with chrome, this young lady will knock your socks off. From connections that have consistently high quality horses, you get a nearly perfect package of cute, sweet, well-mannered and impeccably raised and trained. She has been training well but she is a gate dweller, making her chances of winning a race slim to none. The trainer has chosen to stop on her while she is 100% sound and sane. She gallops in company with other youngsters and has been turned out in a group. We couldn’t stop oohing and aahing over her cuteness, lovely build and oh-so-shiny coat. She also has a tuft of white hairs at the dock of her tail. Don’t wait if you keep going back to her pictures: she has already generated interest!

Sea Slice, 6 year old, 16.2 h, chestnut gelding: retained by owner

If you are looking for a handsome, taller diamond in the rough who is a beautiful mover, don’t wait to call on this guy!  Lightly raced and sound, he has shown no racing ability, but that is your gain. His groom described him as a very quiet good boy, unflappable and with no vices. We were struck by his lovely movement with reach, loft and suspension. We can see him as a promising and successful eventing mount. He is by Slice of Reality, who has produced many good sport horses who are eventing and fox hunting and also showing in the hunter ring. The trainer is anxious to move him to a new career. If you are interested, call soon because he might be moving from the track to the owner’s nearby farm soon.

It’s apparent that the connections of Radical Storm adore him and will seek the best possible home. He is described by all members of the family as the sweetest, kindest soul who “talks” a lot and relished attention and treats, not necessarily in that order! He has gone through his conditions, including two wins this year as a nine year old, so be sure that he is a hardy and sound warhorse. While he could find a niche in any discipline, we envision him as a barrel racer in western tack.

Greenwood Boy, 8 year old 16.2 h bay gelding

This may just be the most beautiful horse we have ever seen – the pictures simply do not do him justice.  Solid, strapping, with an unusual golden color to his bay coat, he knows he is special!  He has been a classy allowance level runner, but came up with a slight bow last year, so his owner/trainer does not want to continue racing him, since she knows he can dazzle in many new careers. With his lofty and light movement, full of suspension, we think he would make a wonderful dressage horse. He should also be fine for jumping.  He is very special to his owner/trainer, and only the very best of homes will do.

Adriatic, 6 year old 15.2h chestnut gelding- sold for racing

This very cute and friendly gelding came off the walker for us to admire and cuddle him.  He was so mellow he already acted like a kid’s pony!  He stood quietly while all of the mud was washed off of him for his pictures, and all he wanted to do was  get close enough to the volunteers for scratches- even after he discovered there were no mints involved!  We admired his balanced build and clean legs, and he jogged quietly, and looks like a cute mover. The trainer states Adriatic doesn’t try very hard on the track, but is a champion eater, in fact that was the only “vice” that he could come up with-that he eats too much, and doesn’t race very hard. Sounds perfect for a trail buddy, future lesson horse, or just someone’s best friend. He is very well bred, out of a stakes winning and producing daughter of the great Spectacular Bid.

Our volunteers fell in love while taking the listing of the fancy beautiful boy.  The scribe says she wants to see what she can sell to bring  him home for her!  Almost black , he has a solid balanced build, with the perfect Black Beauty star, and dapples.  Sweet and  very well behaved  on the ground, Denali Birdstone patiently waited for his glamor shots and then floated right by us in his jog pass, showing off beautiful movement that should get noticed in the hunter ring.  With no vices or soundness issues he is a gelding that would be welcome in any barn- probably in the stall closest to the entrance so everyone can enjoy his beauty! We think this one could be one fine hunter/jumper prospect.

Bernstein’s Friend, 5yr old Bay Gelding 16.1 hands: retained for racing

This handsome, solid bodied bay oozes quality, but he also wants to be someone’s pet!  With big smart soulful eyes, he pleads like a puppy dog for peppermints, who can resist that?  The trainer states that he is friendly, easy to handle and ride with “no quirks, and is sound.”  He was very quiet for his jog video, even though it was a cold windy day and there were horses all around leaping through the air.  Even though  very quiet you could catch a glimpse of a sweeping stride with a touch of suspension.  Certainly a good enough mover for the hunter ring, we can also see him doing  eventing or dressage, or even just  blazing trails all day long.  With his huge sloping shoulder and strong hind end, he looks built to jump. Probably he would just be happy trying anything with a person to love him, and feed him those mints everyday!

Torrey Park, 3 year old 16.3h dark bay gelding

Big, young, solid boned, sound, beautiful mover, and a bargain price!  Don’t hesitate to call – a horse with this much upper level eventing or H/J potential will not last long at any price. Torrey Park was a very friendly sensible boy for his photo session, and the owner of the layup farm where he had recently arrived from the track said he was fine to handle and has no vices.  He is lightly raced with only 11 starts, but after winning a couple earlier this year he has tailed off in a tougher level of competition, so it is time to move him on to a new career.  With his solid boned balanced build, strong shoulder and hind end, we see unlimited potential in many sport careers.  When he jogged, his movement was floating and effortless, with nice suspension. We also watched some race videos to get a better sense of his movement, and we observed a fluid gallop and a huge reaching extended trot full of suspension and lightness.  This is one amazing prospect – step up quickly and snap him up!  He is located at a farm less than two miles from the Finger Lakes Race Track, and he can be seen there by appointment – no drops ins.

Idon’tgetoutmuch, 6 year old 16.1 h chestnut mare.

This pretty, clean legged mare has been a good hard knocking race horse, but it is now time to find her a new career.  She has a full sister who is successfully fox hunting in Maryland, so we certainly see potential to follow in her sport horse footsteps.  The photos were not taken by FLF volunteers, but we will try to get some of our own that better show off this lovely mare. The trainer’s representative told us that this mare is “completely sound, no vices, quiet and well behaved.”  Sounds like a lot to like!  We watched some race videos to get a sense of her movement, and we observed a big strided fluid gallop and a nice reach to her trot, with flat knee action.

Category Nine, 5 year old bay 16.1 h gelding – Placed through FLTAP

This lightly raced, solid, athletic looking bay with a cute white marking on his face was well behaved  despite so much activity around him — an ambulance went by, and another horse practiced his airs-above-the-ground.  He just looked at it all with an intelligent expression, and never put a foot wrong. He has had only 6 starts, and did not start until he was four. He is just not showing any racing ability, so it is time to find him a career where he can excel.  With the nice, even, ground covering jog with natural suspension he showed for his video, we can see great potential in the hunter/jumper ring, or in eventing or dressage. Sound on a barely noticeable old bow, he has no vices.  Imagine him filled out, his topline developed, and him shed out next year – he will be quite a looker.  Seems  like a smart nice guy to live with!

Cuvee City 4yr old Chestnut Colt 15.3 hands – retained for racing

This very handsome boy posed for pictures like a world class super model.  He was sexy and he knew it!  Very well behaved and sensible for his photos, he came back from his last race a little sore but has improved greatly with just a little time off. His legs are clean and jogged soundly for his video, showing a nice flat kneed reach to his stride. We also watched some race videos to see more of his movement, and what we observed is a lovely fluid balanced canter, and a big reach to his trot. The owners think it’s time to send him onto his next career, either as a gelding to become a very fancy show horse, or as a breeding stallion, maybe for your show hunter or sport horse breeding program?  With his beautiful looks, correct conformation and solid balanced build, he would cross beautifully with Quarter horse  or warmblood mares.

Copious Notes, 6 year old 16 h dark bay mare

This very pretty mare has a soft and lovely mink-like coat. She is very well bred, and her trainer thinks she will make a good broodmare prospect.  She hasn’t raced since August, and came up sore on an old knee. The knee looked good when we saw her in late October, and she jogged soundly despite being shoeless.  Trainer says she is quiet to handle and has no vices – he says she is an all around nice girl.  She is by top NY sire Read the Footnotes, who is a son of Smoke Glacken from the Two Punch line.  Her broodmare sire is Miswaki, an international leading sire. Her dam has produced a black type runner in NY Bred stakes. Her second dam is a multiple stakes winner, as is her third dam.  This mare could be a great addition to your New York breeding program – she is an outcross for sires with Storm Cat or AP Indy in their pedigrees. She should also be fine for pleasure riding.

Prince Raffie, 10 year old, 16.3 liver chestnut

This big fellow looks like one of the antique paintings of statuesque thoroughbreds but is endowed with a party-boy personality. A warhorse who is still running strong, his trainer tells us that Raffie has  already dabbled in jumpers and some dressage three years ago
and has even been to some shows. He has an old osselet but as the trainer said “he’s earned it and its not slowing him down a bit”, nor did it seem to interfere with some pretty flashy movement. While this handsome fellow is still game to run, with over $200,000 in winnings, his trainer feels Raffies’s earned his retirement. We can see him dazzling the dressage world, or the show hunter ring — or just taking you on long pleasure rides.  His sire, Raffie’s Majesty, is known for producing good movers, good jumpers, with great minds.

Badge’s Halo, 4 year old, 15.3h+ chestnut filly – placed!

This is one fancy, athletic girl — a great show hunter or eventing prospect! Badge’s trainer says she has tremendous endurance but lacks the speed to win. With her work ethic, this clean legged sound girl with only five starts wants a job. The flies were awful and she was still quiet and tried to stand very well for her photos. Her mane stood up like a punk rocker, but when this well put together mare livened up to trot out, it was evocative of Da Vinci’s Horse. We saw beautiful movement with suspension. It is hard to view a career path that a mare with this build could not handle. Her sire, Badge, has produced several horses who have gone on to be excellent jumpers excelling as eventers and hunter/jumpers.

His rider said that he goes like that to the gate, but when its time to run he is actually all business and has won $131,000. It wasn’t hard to see him sauntering into the startbox but being game enough to go cross country.

Isabella Indy, 2008 15.3h dark bay mare

Girls don’t come much more ladylike than this well behaved sweetie. With a nice overall balance and a spring to her step, her lovely manners just fill out the rest of the package. Despite being in race training, Isabella is a solidly built mare with a nice neck who is still hanging onto her dapples despite the beginnings of a winter coat. Her owner wants her to go to a home where she can continue to be loved on and cared for. She runs best in the mud where her strength and solid feet give her an advantage and that seems to hint at eventer to us, and she has nice enough movement to appeal to those looking for a show hunter, but this pretty lady would probably be happy to go in any direction.

Birdstrike, 5 year old 15.3 bay mare

Another recent for acquisition for the trainer, this flashy bay with a white blaze is a bit of a morning glory and is not showing much speed outside of morning workouts. She is described as very quiet and nice to work around with no vices. Birdstrike was very well behaved for her pictures and video. She is by Raffie’s Majesty, from the His Majesty/Ribot sireline. Raffie’s Majesty has produced many good jumpers who are good movers and have good brains

Price: $500

Hit the Cycle, 6 year old, 16 h bay gelding

A son of Grand Slam, who is known for producing horses with great minds, great work ethics, and jumping talent. He is a recent acquisition for his current trainer,  but this fellow is not running fast enough to keep over the winter. The trainer groomed him loose in his stall and Hit the Cycle just stood there soaking the attention up. We were impressed as this rangy fellow moved out into the sun at how substantial he actually is. It is easy to picture that once Hit the Cycle is let down and fattened up, that this fellow with a nice balanced build, deep shoulder, and good movement would be very solid and masculine looking. His trainer says he has no vices and just wants to be a pet. This one is a diamond in the rough, and we think whoever steps up for hiim will be richly rewarded. If you are looking for an event or hunter/jumper prospect you should give this guy a serious look.

Rustler, 4 year old, 16.1-2h gray filly: new price!

This big, pretty, dappled gray sweetheart is very well bred — she’s a daughter of Holy Bull, out of a mare by Red Ransom, a son of Roberto.  Her trainer says she is so quiet and mellow she just doesn’t want to run fast.  She is lightly raced, and he described her as sound, easy to be around, nice to ride, good to bathe and clip, with no vices. She was indeed mellow for her photo session and jog video, and showed good movement and stride.  She might just want to be a show hunter, like other Holy Bull offspring.  People we know who have horses by Holy Bull rave about what great minds and temperaments they have, and many have excellent jumping talent and are very nice movers. This filly just exudes quality!

Geantor, 4 year old, 16.3h chestnut gelding: New Price!

There is one appropriate phrase to apply to this guy: Drop Dead Gorgeous! Wow, were we ever impressed when this guy walked out for his photo shoot. He has incredible potential as an eventer or field hunter, but he could surely adapt to about any discipline. His trainer states that he has an issue in his right knee upper joint and she is unwilling to continue racing him, recognizing that horses this beautiful are shoe-ins for a successful showing career. This guy will look even more stunning when he finishes growing and fills out some more.

Sergeant Ski, 4 year old dark bay (blk) 15 h gelding

Your attention please. Here is a great child’s hunter or pony club prospect. We were so impressed with this little guy. Sweet, friendly, personable, cute and cuddly. His almost black shiny coat glistens with good health, and he loved being the center of attention.Trainer says he is a nice sweet quiet boy who is sound with no vices and is up to date on everything. Friendly with great conformation, a hearty eater and suitable as a child’s mount, they don’t come along this nice everyday. He jogged quietly for his video, and is a cute mover. Indeed, everything is cute about this great little guy!

Prince Cody, 6 year old, 16h bay gelding

10/14/13  available again! He is now with a different trainer than the one who originally listed him.

A beautiful, solid bodied, well balanced stunner — he looks like an elegant show horse. His long-time handler, who also gallops, describes him as “one of the soundest horses” she has ever worked with. He was alert, inquisitive, friendly and well behaved for his photo session and jog video. We couldn’t stop admiring his beautiful shoulder, deep chest, elegant head, and lovely conformation. He showed very nice movement when jogged. Although Cody has run some good races this year, because of his outstanding potential for a new career in the H/J show ring or in eventing, they would like to retire him while he is completely sound. He is very well bred, by Broken Vow, who is a son of Unbridled from the great Fappiano sire line, out of a mare by Langfuhr, who is a son of Danzig. A great quality opportunity here.

Dorothy’s Essense 7 year old, 15.2 blk bay mare

This lovely mare has been a hard knocking successful race horse, stakes placed with ten wins and over $160,000 in earnings. Her trainer says this lovely girl is out of conditions to race so she would like her to find a forever home. Her rider says she is a really nice  horse to ride and is a solid performer. She was very sweet and quiet when we took her information. The trainer mentioned she has been turned out with her stablemates Aivazovsky and Aracnaphobia and they all get along well together. The trainer also says she is sound with no vices. Her pictures don’t do her justice in the rainy conditions on the day of her photo session. This girl is solidly built, a nice mover and could make a wonderful horse for many disciplines, including Pony Club. With her black type race record and pedigree she also has excellent broodmare potential. She is by Pulpit’s multiple stakes winning regally bred son Essense of Dubai, who sired a Breeders’ Cup winner, and her dam was a NY stakes winner.  Her second dam also produced a major winner of over $300,000, and her third dam is also a multiple stakes producer.  Bring the treats and check her out.

Burning Flame, 3 year old, 15.3-16h bay gelding

Here is a gorgeous boy by Hook and Ladder with a great solid build – pedigree and conformation to excel in jumping disciplines. His trainer says he is a very quiet guy who is just too quiet to be a racehorse. He stopped running about a month ago and was recently gelded to get him settled for his new career. He has since started jogging and we were impressed with what a nice mover he is. Our pictures done on a rainy day just don’t do him justice.This guy is only three years old, still growing and trainer says sound with no vices. He’s ready to take you in any direction. Good home is a must.

River Griot, 4 year old, 16h bay gelding

We just couldn’t get over how solidly built this handsome young boy is!  The rainy weather the day ofhis photo session just didn’t show how pretty he is. So friendly and curious. The Trainer said he hadn’t raced in a month and has been in his stall, yet he was so quiet while he visited with us. The Trainer says this guy is so quiet his 2 y.o. son loves to pet him. He says River Griot is sound with no vices and could do just about anything. He could be a great field hunter or even a trail horse he’s that quiet. Trainer says he is also good in turn out with other horses. If you’re looking for TB who is built like a Morgan and has a disposition to match this is your horse.

Hookedonsweetness, 5 year old, 15.3-16 bay mare

This time it’s a lovely mare by Hook and Ladder. This pretty lady has amazing dapples that just didn’t show up on the rainy day pictures. Nice topline, fancy spots on her white socks and a super mover describes her. She has a light lovely trot with the type of suspension that will get great scores in dressage. She was very friendly and loved the mints we shared with her. Her trainer says she is good in turn out and quiet with other horses and sound with no vices. We see potential for several disciplines.

Caninann, 5 year old, 15.3, dark bay filly – Video Added!

This almost black beauty is beautifully bred, by  AP Indy’s successful young son A P Warrior, out of a Storm Bird mare who is a Secretariat granddaughter. She is ready to move on to a new career because she is just too slow to be a successful race horse. We admired her very pretty good looks, well balanced conformation and sloping shoulder. Her trainer says she has cold tight legs and no soundness issues. She has the right size and spunk for polo, or for many sporting endeavors. With her pedigree she might also make a nice broodmare. It was stormy and windy when we took her photographs, and she had done nothing but hand walk for a while, so her energy level was very high (hence the lip chain). Under these bad weather conditions we could not get a video, but we will try to get one on another track visit.

Lamster, 8 year old, dark bay, 15.3h gelding

If it was the day for much loved pets, this guy certainly falls in that category! Lamster is a very handsome boy and for those people who are suckers for plain bays (raises hand), he’s got enough presence and flash to be stunning under tack. Lamster has had quite an impressive race record with earnings well over $100,000 and a decent percentage for hitting the board. His handler on this day, who knows a thing or two about riding horses, says that he’s great to gallop and “knows his job”. She also says that he is sound, sound, sound and we saw tight, cold legs. Horses with a lot of turns around the oval who are sound and happy as eight year olds have a lot of years ahead of them. When we saw him he was quite up after not doing much after his last race two weeks ago.
