SOLD - Stunning 16.2h 4 yr old ex racehorse

[lisah]

Gail has asked me to post this advert -- a very sad sale due to a change in circumstances.

Sam was at FOC and is a total stunner and the potential to be a superb eventer or dressage horse - I wish I had room for him as he is just gorgeous. This is a 'serious' horse and will make somebody a superb partner.

For Sale Bay TB Gelding 16.2hh, 4 Yrs Old.

Sam is a super horse showing great promise, he is easy to do and has a wonderful attitude to his work. He has been placed in the top three in both his dressage outings and 2nd at the Festival of Champions in the ex racehorse showing class. He has started jumping and demonstrating scope and agility, I have had professional help with both disciplines to ensure he has the best start in his new career.

I would really love to keep him and event him, but a change in circumstances means this lovely chap is for sale and a good home is paramount.

£3750. ovno.

His full name is Fire Alarm and he came from Lucinda Russell. He last raced in spring 2007 and then was turned away to chill. I brought him into work slowly in December/January 2008. He is very sane and sensible and eager to please in every respect, good to catch,box, shoe, hack out (alone or company),etc.

He is at Livery in Linlithgow and we have full facilities for trial.
Thanks Gail

Oh, so sorry that you're having to sell him Gail - you looked great together.

David Gatherer told me some time ago that he was looking for a nice young ex-racer with the scope to make 3-star (maybe 4) eventing. Unfortunately, everything that has come up since then has been under his height requirement of 16.2 or had an injury history.

I've just phoned & left him a message about Sam, so fingers crossed.

Big hugs from me - must've been a hard decision.

Oh no, that's awful. Must be really hard for you. Beautiful horsey, would love him myself but not in a position to right now.
Hope you find someone worthy of him.
Big hugs at what must be a difficult time for you

Hi thanx guys,

Have had lots of response to Lisa's ad, thanx Lisa. xxx

I do just luv him and know he will go far, there have bin tears and I wish I could keep him. But hopefully he will get a new home thru you guys rather than a national ad! Thanx for your support and network to make sure Sams new home is as good as it's now!! Well its not an option it will be or I will try and keep him!

Cheers guys I will support you and promote exracers from now and the society surrounding them.

I hope you get somewhere lovely for him, he is a lovely boy. He looked incredible at kingsbarn a few weeks ago. I would love him, but 2 are plenty for me, plus i couldn't do him justice, he looks like he has so much potential.
