I've been on him only a few times, but he's easy to ride and a quick study.  This guy has talent and excellent movement to go with it.  Click here to see his video.  This video was made only a day after arriving at this farm.  He's never been in an indoor and is you listen workmen were stacking jumps on the other side of the wall.  Clark didn't care, he knew he was supposed to listen to me.

"Marvin" 

 

All around great horse.  He was Grade 1 stakes placed Steeplechaser. He has foxhunted, hunter paced, hunter trialed. You name it, he's done it.

"LaceCap" 

Click here to see her pedigree.

 

This is Lacecap, she is a registered Thoroughbred mare.  She is by Sahm and out of the Icecapade mare, Bayberry.   She is 9 years old.

 

She ran 12 times with a handful of second and thirds. She was never injured but there was no point in continuing to race her as she is such a nice individual, but not a good racehorse.  

 


 

 

She was raced from the farm mostly so is accustomed to riding cross country. She crosses streams, happily hacks out solo-she is very brave. She loads and travels well, easy to work around and an overall love. She turns out with her buddies and is not an alpha female...very amiable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

She is 15.3 and has no vices.  She would be lovely fit for someone who wants a kind horse to take to small shows, pleasure riding or breeding.  I wouldn't suggest high intensity disciplines such as 3 day eventing or top notch foxhunting like Greenspring but second field would be a fit.

 

 

LaceCap is available for $3,500.  The most important part of all this is that she gets a great home  She is located in Upperco, Maryland.  For more information contact me.

"Ozzy" 

Click here to see his pedigree.

 

Sir Oz is a beautiful horse with a wonderful temperament.   He is By Trust & Luck out of Sulzar.  Ozzy is a registered Thoroughbred gelding.

No vices or soundness issues and he is very kind when being handled and ridden.

The owner who is also the breeder has decided to give up on racing him because he just was not competitive. He did win at Delaware going long, but the cost of training in contrast with his earnings did not make sense. This is not an owner who "gets rid" of her horses. He will be available only to a wonderful home.

He is sweet and reasonably bomb proof.  The owner said she probably should not have gelded him because he was just as sweet as a colt. The farm that now stands Trust & Luck reports him to be the most easily handled of all stallions.
 

 

 

Trained by Michael Gorham at Fair Hill, Ozzy is used to the best of everything.  Michael has everything in 4 standing bandages unless training, this is the reason for the discoloration of the lower legs.

 

He is 5 years old and 16 hands with very good bone.

 

Sir Oz is offered at $3,500 to a good home only.  He is located at Liberty Hill Farm in Mt. Airy, Maryland.  To arrange to see him, please contact me.
