About: Venus Venus is an off-the-track Thoroughbred that we bought when she was seven years old. With the help of a grand prix Swedish trainer, we have retrained her to be a jumper!
Her record for highest jump was a 4' triple bar that was 5' wide. But, we consistently jump and compete at 3'3-3'6.
One thing about Venus that makes her stand out is that she has a crooked ear. Her left ear points farther forward than her right. My farrier thinks that she sustained a chest injury which affected the nerve from her ear all the way down to the back of her hoof (can't remember what it's called).
Venus and I have been competing in the Open Jumper division (3'3-3'6) division on our local "C" circuit and are currently in the top 3 in overall points! :) This mare is amazing. She will do anything I ask of her, make crazy fast turns and super speedy rounds, and always behaves like a professional! :) Can't say enough amazing things about this horse. Love her so much!
Activities: Eating, jumping, and competing. :)
