This big handsome guy has such a kind eye, and we admired his uphill build and strong shoulder. His trainer says Shelby is a nice horse, good to handle, no vices, and sound. He says he would make an excellent riding horse. Shelby was a perfect gentleman for his photo session. For his jog video, we could see that he has a slight sting halt in his left hind, which showed up when he was turned, and then he trotted right out of it and moved well. His trainer says this is just the way he is, and that he races just fine with it. Shelby has ten in the money finishes in 31 starts. Shelby will be able to do just fine in many new careers, and he is very bargain priced for such a big, good looking young gelding, so please give him a chance to have the great life he deserves! Shelby has a great pedigree for sport. His sire, Artie Schiller is a son of El Prado and a grandson of the great Sadler’s Wells. He is out of a mare by Yes It’s true, from the Raja Baba line of Bold Ruler, with Danzig on the dam side. There is no Mr. Prospector or Storm Cat blood in this handsome young horse’s pedigree.
Price: $500 negotiable to a good home
