wow! I really like her. Her front canons are a tad long, and pasterns, too, but her bone is not delicate. Her long neck, and intelligent face speak for good balance. I'd snap her up!
4 year-old OTTB mare

This is another horse I am interested in, and may get the chance to test ride her this week.
She is 4, track trained but did not race due to slowness. 15.3 and growing. Is a steady-eddie in your pocket type. No injuries but I will get a PPE.
Bertrando, Mr. Prospector, Danzig, and Fappiano in the pedigree.
Looking to do low level dressage, maybe small jumps, trails potentially. Nothing competitive. Thank you in advance!
I believe she was moving forward in this one.

Exciting update!
I am proper chuffed.
Ended up seeing her a day early. She was hauled to a friend of the seller’s arena, we got there right after them and watched her unload, took her blanket off, free lunged her a bit, ran hands over her, watched her be tacked up and all of that jazz. I could write a novel expressing how impressed I was with this horse. Let’s say that once I got on her for a walk/trot around it felt like home. My canter seat needs to be a bit more quiet before I personally do that with a green horse but the canter she gave the trainer was willing and unrushed. Mellow girl but has a nice forward walk and barely had to “think” trot for her to move out. She will stop/slow down on seat alone, moves off the leg and is already beginning to learn contact and bend. Nary a tail swish nor pinned ear. All gaits had a fantastic cadence and she moved fluidly.
Did I mention that my ride was only her 7th off track ride? She never put a toe out of line. In a new place.
Yeah, she was a tad fidgety when first being readied…but after a small reminder she stood still and seemed to be contemplating a nap.
There was a tarp tied to the fence…while she was loose to cool down after our ride, I went over and rattled it. She actually walked over to me to check it out and didnt give a hoot about it when I started flapping it around. She was trying to eat it later.
PPE passed. Needless to say, Morticia will be coming home tomorrow. I didn’t take many pics as I was busy admiring this gal in disbelief.
