Paddy is an 8 year old gelding and stands about 16.2h. Paddy has been retired from the track for about three years and is just ridden for pleasure at the moment (western). He still has the Thoroughbred spirit in him but will do what you want him to do. He is easy to catch from the pasture, will even come to you. Likes to use me for a scratching post. Easy to load, wash and saddle. Stand well for farrier. I am selling him because we would like him to go where he will be ridden often. We have had inquiries from people wanting to train him for jumping and show, these are out of our wheelhouse. He has been ridden by Canadian trainer who feels.he would excel in those areas. His pedigree includes Thoroughbred royalty with Bernadini is grandsire on dam side, along with Seattle Slew and Secretariat. He has Northern Dancer bloodlines thru sire side.
