Located at Finger Lakes Race Track, Farmington, NY (near Rochester)
Severious captured the hearts of our volunteers, and we think he may be one of the bargains of the year. With his laid back, sweet personality and beautiful lofty movement, we think he’s a great show hunter prospect, but his potential for any new discipline is unlimited. Severious has lost interest in racing, so he is letting his connections know that it is time to let him have a new career. He is described as a good, easy horse to work with, a guy who does everything right, who is very sound. His legs are clean, except for a small recent cut on a hind shin that will quickly heal. His trainer says he is a mild occasional cribber, and does not need a collar. Ulcer treatment and turn out often take care of this! Severious showed off what a friendly sweetheart he is, with both other horses and people. Not only did he nuzzle with our volunteer when she stood next him to check his height, but he also gave a friendly greeting to and nuzzled with a passing lead pony. While we were already quite taken with Severious from his friendly personality and pretty head, once he trotted off and showed gorgeous movement, we were thoroughly smitten. We think whoever steps up for him is going to be very lucky! The trainer wants to put a more competitive race horse in his stall, so he is offered at a bargain rice for such a good looking, sound, great moving young gelding. Severious is by Patriot Act (a son of AP Indy), out of Queen in Waiting by Sea Salute (a son of Danzig).
