Brennan is a very handsome, solid bodied, sound and sensible guy who is a lovely light mover — and he has an outstanding sport horse pedigree. This is the whole package here! We listed Brennan last fall, but his trainer decided to keep him over the winter to bring him back to race this year on the synthetic track surface at Presque Isle, since Brennan had previously shown an affinity for the turf and synthetic tracks. Her decision was rewarded, as Brennan has a win, a second, and two thirds this year. But the Presque Isle race meet is ending soon, and Brennan does not care for the hard dirt track at Finger Lakes, so it is now time to let him move on to a new career. Recent research has shown that horses who prefer to run on turf and synthetic tracks make the best eventing horses. But with his solid good looks and light toe pointing movement, we can also see Brennan doing well in the show hunter ring. He can go in any disciplinary direction you want. His trainer reports that Brennan is a nice horse, easy to handle, no vices, sound, clean legged. He also has good feet. Indeed, he was barefoot for his photo session and jog video, since he had recently come back to his Finger Lakes base from racing on the synthetic at Presque Isle, and that track requires a different type of shoe, which she pulled as soon as he came back to her Finger Lakes barn. Brennan moved beautifully on hard pavement in his bare feet, light and springy with good engagement from behind and toe pointing reach — which we think is a testament to his soundness and good feet. He is by War Dancer, who is by War Front from the Danzig sire line. This is a turf running sire line that has produced many excellent eventers and jumpers. Brennan’s dam is by a son of Distorted Humor out of a Dynaformer mare — more excellent sport horse sire lines. Do not overlook Brennan this time around — this is a nice horse!
