Ex-racer for rehoming

[boxcarhorse]

A friend's racing yard is looking to re-home a stunning ex-racer as he's come to the end of his racing shelf life.
He's a 12 year old, 16.3hh bay gelding, very well put together and moves exceptionally well. He'd do really well showing or dressage - he really moves like a warmblood, big paces and very active hind leg. He also jumps and has a very sensible temperament for an ex-racer. He hacks out alone and in company.

On the downside he windsucks.

He's in urgent need of a new home. So if you might be interested in rehoming him please PM me for more information. I have a video I can send.

Thanks very much.

What price are they looking for and where are they based please

Hi there

£300... he's on the Oxon/Glos border.

Oh ok to far for me really. Hope you find him a good home

My ex racer wind sucks less than when I got him and it's never been a problem. Sounds like a lovely horse for someone and the wind sucking should be irrelevant at that price if his teeth are good.
