I'm fairly new to this site, but in the time I've been here I've seen so many posts about OTTB! I was just wondering if they go for a bargain since they can't race anymore or what. And I also want to give a big hi-five to all of you that have bought OTTB.....cause I know a lot of them go to slaughter when their racing career is over. And one more question, I see so many OTTB on here that are just used for english diciplines, and I think th at's great, but are there any of you that use your OTTB for western riding?? I've always shyed away from OTTB, cause I know they can be quite a handful and can be dangerous. Can anyone calm my nerves on this issue???? Thank you all!!
