I've recently purchased a new horse. He is a Weatherby's passported Irish bred thoroughbred, racing name Flying Gazebo.
His passport is a little 'light' with only one owners details hand written in which is possibly the breeder/ trainer?

March 2006 makes this lovely boy 7 yrs old. He was bred in Ireland and then brought over and raced/ stabled at Newbury in Buckinghamshire until I believe he was sold to a lady who livered in Buckinghamshire at a show jumping yard! He was then sold from that yard to a gent called Richard,also in Buckinghamshire and then I brought him a little over a month ago due to the previous owner having a life changing accident.

Any help or pointers would be much appreciated. Gizmo is a very much loved and beautiful horse whom I just totally adore and can't ever imagine being without but if I can i would love to speak to anyone who knew him. Thanks

Doesnt look like he was the fastest, but this may give you a start tracing his background, let us know if you manage to find out more about him! Its always nice to hear about ex racers enjoying life after the track.
