After losing my lovely gelding at the end of Feb, I now have Ed the Ex-racer!
He finished racing in August and has been on holiday since then.
I got him at the end of March, so we've been taking things slowly and building up. We're booked into retraining of racehorses camp in July so need to get cracking!
We are lucky to have fantastic hacking straight outside the yard gate so have been mainly hacking to build him up as he's very weak still.
My gorgeous boy the day he was PTS
Ed the day he arrived!
First ride
Looking very elegant 😂
First baby attempt at schooling
Does anyone else have an ex-racer and tips for building up/getting started? Ed is only six so I hope to have lots of time with him!
