PASTA N POLPETTE, 2021 16.1h grey gelding

Everyone loves pasta and polpette (meatballs), and how much more delectable can they be when served in the form of a young still growing striking grey horse!  This big meatball has shown in his four races this year that he would rather not move fast enough to win — but that preference for a slower even pace will translate well to the show ring! His trainer reports that he is a good horse to handle, gallops politely for his exercise riders, has no vices, and has always been sound, and we observed clean legs. He is still butt high and obviously has more growing to do, but we think once he finishes growing and fills out his lanky frame he will be stunning. Although he was missing a right front shoe, he displayed a big strided long slinky walk, and a very nice trot that shoed tantalizing hints of flat kneed reach from the shoulders— although his trainer’s slow movement did not sufficiently allow Pasta N Polpette to fully show off his own movement. Trust our volunteers’ experienced eyes — sometimes you have to see past the movement limitations of the human to see what the horse can be. Pasta N Polpette has an enticing sport horse pedigree. He is sired by Micromanage, a son of Medaglia D’Oro from the El Prado/Sadler’s Wells line. Micromanage has sired several horses that have gone on to success as eventers, jumpers, and show hunters. And Micromanage himself was retired from stud duty and turned into a sport horse! Pasta N Polpette’s dam is by the great Tapit, from the AP INdy sire line.
