*NEW PRICE* *NEED TO SELL* Bailey is a good guy who is looking for someone to be his new best friend. He has not been ridden much over the past three years but he still rides ok when I get the chance. He is a sweetheart on the ground and has good ground manners. He is not a begginners horse under saddle right now. He is not unruly, he is just a thoroughbred. He has schooled beginner novice (eventing) including water obstacles, but its been a few years. He has not been exposed to much, other than our pasture for a while but I feel that with a consistent and confident rider he will be a great horse. I just don't have the time right now and my husband and I are trying to downsize a bit. He will still come into frame for short periods after some warm-up and had started some lateral movement. I have only been able to ride him a couple times a month but he still remembers quite a bit of what we were working on before we got too busy. He is current on worming and shoeing. (Shots will be due at the end of June 2012) He bathes, loads, and stands tied. We are hoping for him to find a good home as soon as possible so the price is negotiable to a good home. He is an ex-racehorse: won 2 races before he retired at 4. Feel free to contact me with any questions. These pictures were taken in May of 2011. He has only been ridden about 1-2 times a month but has been handled regularly on the ground. Please excuse the finger in some of the pictures! I do have video if you are seriously interested in him. Thank you!
NOTE: I am tall (6ft) so he looks a little smaller in the pictures than he actually is. Thanks.
UPDATE: I have cut Bailey's price again in the hope that he will move on to a home where he can be something other than a pasture bum. We have too many horses for two working people to school regularly!
