TALE OF MINESHAFT, 2018 15.3h stallion

Located at Finger Lakes Racetrack in Farmington, NY (near Rochester)

They say great stallions make even greater geldings, and Tale of Mineshaft’s track connections fully believe this will be true about him! It is reported that he can even go on the hot walker with fillies!  While he has no stall vices- even being stabled next to a filly- it is said that he can act “like a colt” when he is getting a bath, and even then it is only playful.  Tale of Mineshaft had right front ankle surgery, placing a screw, last year. While he has not raced since, his connections report that he has been sound to breeze, gallop, and jog. He was cleared to go back to racing, and his trainer had planned to geld and race him, but Mineshaft’s owner is getting out of racing and would like his boy to find a good home.

Mineshaft is reported to be lovely to ride on the track, going right to work.  As he displayed in our attempts at videos, Mineshaft is a bit up right now. He has not trained since April 13th.  While we did not get to see much of his jog in person, he did display a lovely canter for our volunteer.  And while “high” right now from a lack of work, he did remain respectful of his handler and stood perfectly to be admired for his photoshoot.  We’ve included a video his trainer sent previously for at least a little jog.

Tale of Mineshaft is by Mineshaft who is son of the legendary AP Indy and is out of a Tale of the Cat mare. His pedigree screams class and athleticism. His dam is a stakes winner, and his second dam is a multiple graded stakes winner and stakes producer. This boy has the makings of a lovely gelding and his connections want to find the very best home for him!

Price: $1,500 negotiable to the best of homes

HANGAR ONE, 2018 16.3h grey gelding — claimed so still racing with new owner

HANGAR ONE, 2018, 16.3, GREY GELDING

Located at Finger Lakes Racetrack in Farmington, NY (near Rochester)

Here’s another young, large, grey gelding with a big personality to boot!  Hangar is a trainer favorite! This goofy guy wowed volunteers with his uphill build and natural over track at the walk! Hangar is currently barefoot. Hangar sustained a sesamoid fracture in 2022 but was fully rehabbed and is fully cleared to return to racing, but his trainer feels he is better suited to life off the track.  X rays available to serious parties. While Hangar could excel in many mid to low level jobs, his trainer feels he would be a fantastic eventer!  He will require a person experienced with OTTBs and is not a good candidate for a first timer.  Hangar One is by He’s Had Enough, who has both Tapit and Dixie Land Band lines that are both coveted for their athleticism and sport horse ability!

Price: $8,000 negotiable

Located at Finger Lakes Racetrack in Farmington, NY (near Rochester)

Calling all fans of big, grey geldings! Al’s Prince certainly fits the ideal!  This 5 year old is lightly raced but managed to earn over $100,000 in his career!  Al is reported to be as laid back as he is good looking.  His connections state that he has no vices and is easy to work with.  While he hasn’t been with them long, his connections say he’s been great to have around the barn.  It was reported that he came back a little sore after his last breeze but has been sound since, so his owner has decided he has paid his dues and would like him to find another career.  Al last raced in October so he is RRP eligible.  Al’s Prince is by the highly desired Cairo Prince, known for throwing ammy friendly brains and incredible movement, and in his jog video, he definitely held true! While the cool, breezy day had him feeling a bit up, he remained respectful; of his handler during his jog video and displayed lovely natural suspension that made our dressage riding volunteer drool! On the other side, Al is out of a Bellamy Road mare, who is coveted for his dressage and eventing offspring!  Don’t miss a chance at a big, young, lightly raced, good looking guy!
