What a hunk! Wesworld is a solid bodied boy — and adorable as well with his unique spotted face. A true barn favorite beloved by many on the backside, his trainer says he’s her big pet. She has even trained him to bow for treats, which he obligingly showed off for us. She claimed him two years ago, and soon learned she had just acquired a horse with an infected hind leg and white line disease. She poured her time, love, and funds into getting Wesworld back to full health, with good feet. She reports that he is completely sound, and we observed clean and tight legs. Since she got him back to the races last summer, he has accumulated lots of third and fourth place finishes last year and this year, but winning seems elusive, so she wants to find a new career for her beloved boy where he can succeed. With his solid uphill build, strong shoulder and hind end, combined with an outstanding sport horse pedigree, we can see Wesworld shining in many disciplines. His trainer — who also gallops him — says he is strong to gallop, so she would recommend an experienced rider. We saw Wesworld three days after he had raced, and he was very laid back for his jog video — a slow western jog was his agenda. Wesworld is sired by Verrazano, who is from the More Than Ready/Halo sire line and out of a Giant’s Causeway mare. With this pedigree it’s hardly a surprise that Vaerrazano is sought out as a sport horse sire, known for producing good brained horses. Wesworld’s s dam is by Hard Spun, a Danzig son who is another popular sport horse sire.

When the trainer messaged us about this cute stocky guy, she wrote in all caps: “BARN/BACKSIDE FAVORITE OF ALL TIMES!!!” She describes him as a loveable ham, who just loves people and attention. We agree — he is adorable, and loved our attention as we took his photos and told him how cute he is. Racing clearly is not his game — in three starts he has been beaten a total of 80 lengths. With his light and lofty movement with enticing suspension, we can see him excelling in dressage, but he has unlimited potential for any new discipline. He currently has a skin condition that the vet thinks is a reaction to something in the track environment, possibly in the track surface since he developed the rash after he started working out on the main track in May. It is clearing up and does not bother Mittens. The trainer reports that while he was on the farm over the winter his coat was fine. Newport Mittens is by Lookin at Lucky, who is by Smart Strike out of a Belong to Me mare. Lookin at Lucky is deservedly becoming a popular sport horse sire, known for siring horses with good brains and friendly temperaments. Mittens’ dam is by City Zip.
The best of homes is a must for this beloved barn pet!

This cute dappled girl is stocky enough to fit right in with a group of quarter horses. With her solid and smaller stature, we can see her as an excellent prospect for polo or barrels, but she could do any discipline you want. She is reported to be good to handle and without vices. Lightly raced, she has one win and two seconds in eight starts. SHe jogged politely, showing good push form behind. She is sired by Redesdale, a son of Speightstown out of Harpia, a Danzig daughter who is a full sister to the great racehorse and sire Danehill (also sought after in the sport horse world). Her dam, Fast Franny, is by Freud, a deservedly popular sport horse sire who’s a full brother to Giant’s Causeway. Fast Franny is by D’Accord, a son of Secretariat — it’s rare to see Secretariat this close in a pedigree these days. Forever Amy’s half brother (both out of Fast Franny) is Napoleon Complex, also smaller and a beautiful mover, who was a highly sought after commodity when we listed him last year, and he is adapting well to a potential show hunter career. Perhaps his sister can go in the same direction.

“Eve” would be the perfect nickname for this girl! Her trainer describes her as “super sweet” and very good to handle. She is also reported as sound, with no issues. The trainer informed us that Don’t Eatthe Apple does crib, but they haven’t bothered to use a collar because it’s mild. She has 5 wins in 26 starts, with 8 additional top three finishes, showing her athleticism and heart. But this year, she has been slower out of the gate, and since early speed is her forte, she hasn’t been as successful in her races, so it is time to let her find a new career. She was very relaxed and quiet for her jog video, showing a nice flowing walk and a light and lovely trot with nice hints of suspension. She is sired by Awesome of Course, a son of Awesome Again from the Deputy Minister line. Her dam is by Hear No Evil, a Carson City son, and is out of a Saint Ballado mare. Blushing Groom, Affirmed, Norther Dancer, and Halo are some of illustrious sport horse lines in her pedigree.

This beautiful young gelding is described as “Mr. Personality Plus,” sweet, cuddly, and quiet. Not surprisingly, with those traits he’s “just not a racehorse,” but those are ideal traits for a new career. Still growing, he’s likely to top out at 15.3-16h. His trainer reports that he is sound with no vices. He showed how quiet he is in his jog video — a slow jog! Lightly raced, he has one win in ten starts, and he is fully eligible for the 2024 RRP. He sold for $57,000 as a yearling, and he has an excellent pedigree for sporting disciplines. His sire, Brody’s Cause, is a son of Giant’s Causeway. His dam, War Kill, is from Danzig and Rahy/Blushing Groom lines.
A lovely accessory indeed! Scarf has striking roaning on her face, so she will certainly stand out from the crowd. She is solid bodied, with a strong sloping shoulder. She came to her current trainer at Finger Lakes in late June, after running on the Parx/Monmouth circuit. Previous trainers ran her regularly almost every two weeks, and while she physically handled it and remains sound and clean legged, her mind is saying “enough with this racing game.” Her current trainer is listening to her, and knows she will be much happier in a new career. Since she arrived in his care, they have had her scoped and thoroughly checked over by a vet, and she is reported to have nothing wrong with her — other than being done with the racing game. Her trainer reports that she is a cribber, but they have it completely controlled with a collar. He thinks that once away from the confinement and stress of the racing life and able to enjoy turn out, the cribbing may alleviate. Scarf is sired by Mosler, who is by War Front out of an Arch mare. Her dam, Scarfire, is by Friesan Fire, a son of AP Indy, who is out of a Rahy mare. The Danzig, Fappiano, Roberto, and Seeking the Gold lines on her sire’s side, and the AP Idy, Blushing Groom, Cozzene, Caro, and Halo lines on her dam side should make her a very enticing prospect for sporting discipline.
