In 2021, we launched the Broodmare Bunch, a new facet of our retraining program focusing on assisting broodmares in finding new careers as riding horses, after their time being a racehorse and a mother are over.  This is one of the first, if not the first, Thoroughbred program in the US to focus on broodmares, who can often be at-risk when their breeding careers are over. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGG is our first graduate from the Broodmare Bunch who is ready to find her new home!  Born in 2004, she was a successful racehorse, winning 8 of 33 races and banking over $250k in her career.  She then retired from the track, and had 6 foals, including two very successful runners who have earned over $100k each.  She was responsibly retired from breeding by her owners, who look forward to her enjoying her golden years with a person who can dote on her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer ideal adopter would be someone who likes to spend time with her. GG likes attention, and she really thrives when kept on a regular routine. She would be happy being a horse that lives at a private farm or at a boarding barn. The more you do with her, the happier she is. She doesn’t seem to be the type that wants to travel the world but likes to show off her moves in places she is familiar with.  She has been restarted under English tack.  She is vet cleared to jump (we would recommend small to medium jumps due to her age) and is a good all-around type who moves nice enough to also focus on dressage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGG is a big, beautiful mare and has some funny quirks that will endear her to you even more.  One of her funniest habits is smacking her lips together like she’s clapping – she does this at the most random times. (Check out the video below to see her famous GG faces).  The vet has confirmed she isn’t in any pain or discomfort, but it’s just one of her silly habits - we enjoy her and her personality!

The more you do with her, the happier she is. She doesn’t seem to be the type that wants to travel the world but likes to show off her moves in places she is familiar with.  She has been restarted under English tack.  She is vet cleared to jump (we would recommend small to medium jumps due to her age) and is a good all-around type who moves nice enough to also focus on dressage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGG is a big, beautiful mare and has some funny quirks that will endear her to you even more.  One of her funniest habits is smacking her lips together like she’s clapping – she does this at the most random times. (Check out the video below to see her famous GG faces).  The vet has confirmed she isn’t in any pain or discomfort, but it’s just one of her silly habits - we enjoy her and her personality!  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe is currently located near Dayton, OH. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.equibase.com\/profiles\/Results.cfm?type=Horse\u0026amp;refno=7167476\u0026amp;registry=T\"\u003eRace Record \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/friendsofferdinand.com\/pages\/adoption-application\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/friendsofferdinand.com\/pages\/adoption-application\"\u003eAdoption Application\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xoW7L1aQpks\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Iotop0wqJcs\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OeFyI5_GP9k\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6FnaPCZXY2o\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
