Another wonderful durable war horse, the handsome and adorable Buddy Red is still sound and clean legged and quite a lovely mover after 69 starts, with 8 wins and 32 in the money finishes.  He is really just a big puppy dog — his owner/trainer kept saying what a good kind horse he is, not the slightest bit studdish. Just think what a great gelding Buddy will be!  We experienced Buddy’s agreeable good-to-handle nature for ourselves when one of our volunteers offered to jog him for his video, since his owner/trainer has limited mobility.  Buddy trotted politely on a loose lead, stepping out nicely and showing off a beautiful flat kneed ground covering trot. We think Buddy is a true gem, who could excel in any new discipline. He is certainly pretty enough and has the movement for the show hunter ring.  Do not let his age or “intact” status deter you — he has many more years to give, and at his bargain price you can pay for a simple gelding procedure and still have one of the bargains of the season!  A very good home is essential.

As always, a pre-purchase veterinary exam is recommended.
