CASTLECOVE SPIRIT, 2021, 16.1h+, dark bay colt

They say a good colt will make a great gelding, and we feel that will hold true for Castlecove Spirit.  while he has been fine at the track stabled next to fillies, where there is a solid cement wall in between stalls, over the winter at a farm where he could see into the next stall, he was trying to get into the filly neighbor’s stall. In winter turnout he also did not play well with others, so until he is gelded and given a few months for the testosterone to leave his system and his brain, individual turnout would be best, and then a gradual introduction to a gelding group.  He is reported to be easy to work around in his stall, with no vices.  You can often find him laying down sleeping in his stall! Castle’s race connections state that he can be a bit of a forward ride, and a bit of a handful while at the track, but he hasn’t offered a buck or rear.  His trainer feels he could benefit from some time off as he hasn’t been off the track since before his 2-year-old year.  He is reported to be sound with no injuries.

Castle was a little wiggly for his photo session but was perfectly happy to allow our volunteers to help pose him, especially with the assistance of a peppermint.  While the breezy day distracted Castle a little during his jog video, he remained respectful of his handler and displayed a good over track at the walk and good reach at the trot.

Castlecove Spirit’s pedigree is packed full of notable names desired in the sport horse world. He is by World of Trouble , who is by Kantharos, a Lion Heart baby.  He is out a Shanghai Bobby mare, with Harlan Holiday and Tiznow lines.  With a pedigree like this, it is likely Castlecove Spirit will have loads of personality and should be quite athletic.  This guy sure has it all, good lucks, a great personality, and fantastic bloodlines! Don’t let this fancy guy pass you by!
