New TB mare picked up from the track this weekend

Lazy F Ponies · 10-10-2005, 06:27 AM

Meet Trudys A Tiger - 3yo filly with a slab fracture. She's on 60 days stall rest, then will be turned out to pasture. Next spring she will be bred to my Welsh Stallion! I am so excited.

She's a sweetheart, and you would never believe she came straight from the track, and had already been on 3 weeks stall rest when I picked her up. She's dirty and dusty from living in her stall,and we're not going to put much weight on her until her knee is healed.

I know you're going to take good care of her though, I cant wait to see the baby!!

OMG, she brought tears to my eyes, she reminds my of my mare I just put down. I would steal her if I had the chance!

She is cute!!!!!
How did you come across her?

Lazy F Ponies · 10-10-2005, 07:35 AM

we work closely with LOPE TX, which is the TX version of Canter, but they changed their name as they also rehome QH's and Arabs, anything that races.

Well the meet ends at Retama this weekend, and the owner wasn't going to move and pay expenses on a horse that can't run right now. So, I was contacted to see if I was interested in her because of her size (15h). Of course, I couldn't let her be put down (she was scheduled for the 15th to be euthenized). The knee has no swelling and is doing great!

Nes - she is race fit, from the track, ran her last race on September 14th. Plus, she has lost a few lbs. he said from the injury, pain, etc.

Give me 4 months and she'll look like a different horse.

How old is she ? probably fill out more too with age...Cathy

Lazy F Ponies · 10-10-2005, 07:52 AM

she's 3, will be 4 in January, so yeah, she's still young, has some filling out to do. I picked her up for a friend, but they don't have stalls, so I get to keep her during her RnR then breed her to Duke! wooo hooooo
