Im just looking to see if anyone knew or used to own my boy. Hes an off track thoroughbred and i have found his racing history online but this isnt really what interests me i would like to know more about what hes been doing and where hes been since then as i know very little of his history at all.
Name: Hot Air
Stable name: Sid (believe it has always been this as first owners were Sydney & Co when racing but may of been known as different)
Age: 16 years foaled 1998
height: 16.2hh-17hh (likes to meausre differently each time)
Markings: White star (resembles an 'S' shape)
I bought him at the start of this year from Trimdon Station in County Durham North East England. He was sold from the field and was pretty bad mannered and wild when he first arrived. He was a bit under weight and generally looked quite scruffy was very bad tempered and tried to kick out and bite, i dont know how long hed been left un worked but when i first rode him he was incredibly strong and constantly tried to bolt and gallop off. I had been told he had hunted and done some xc with previous owners to the ones i had bought him from but this was all very vague so i thought that perhaps he hadnt done as much as i was led to believe due to his behavior as he still displayed so many race horse tendancies. Any how fast forward a few months and a lot of hard work and he has really started to relax and his manner both on the ground and under saddle has completly changed, he is now a lovely friendly loving lad who although still very forward is great fun under saddle and proving to be a very talented jumper so now thinking at some point someone has put alot of work into bringing him from a race horse to a riding horse and would love to speak to anyone who knew or used to own him for a bit of history!
Here are some pics of him (hope they work).
This is the day he was collected:
