Ricky's Lass is an 12 year old, 16.1
hand, chestnut (has scattered white
hairs over entire body) gelding.
He
is sound and has never been lame in the
three years we have had him.
We got
him about 3 years ago and have been
using him as a walk-trot trail horse. We
have taken him to Gettysburg battlefield
and regularly trail ride through
Potapsco State Park.
He is pokey
walking out on the trails, but is
nervous and as a result becomes a little
excited coming home. His owner is 61 and
a timid rider with a bad back who needs
a quieter (bomb proof) horse.
Ricky
has been a perfect gentleman when ridden
in the ring at the farm and has even
given pony rides to kids with no
problems. We haven't schooled him over
jumps, but he has willingly jumped logs
on the trail and cross-rails in the
ring. We think Ricky would do better in
a home with a confident rider and
consistant ring work to bring out his
potential. No beginners, experienced
riders only please!
Ricky loves to be
groomed on especially his face. He wants
to be someones loving pet. He is a loved
member of our family and a wonderful
horse, but sadly, just too much horse
for us. For this reason we are offering
him to a loving approved home. We would
prefer he stay in the Maryland area so
we can keep in touch.
He had a
lateral condyle fracture as a 2 year old
in training and had 3 screws placed in
the leg. After the fracture repair, he
raced about a half dozen times as a 3
year old. He was too slow to keep in
training, so he was retired.
He is
located in Ellicott City, Maryland.
