Second chance horses

Second chance horses rehoming predominately off the track thoroughbreds, trying to find the perfect horse to rider combinations! Whilst giving purpose to retired ex racehorses!

Small, flash unraced/ untried TB. (Still eligible all OTT benefits)
15.1hh
8yo
Vice and injury free
Moves like a show pony, jumps like a star!

Currently paddocked with 5 geldings and 1 mare and is the easiest horse ever to have here! Catches you and leaves the heard without a care in the world.
Ties up, don’t have to worry about my 2yo riding her bike around him or anything at all!
Has great feet and easily runs barefoot!

Mavericks history is a little unknown however he has definitely had some education behind him! To what level we don’t know. I have had him to two outings so far where he was absolutely flawless in every way!
Very easy to pull out of the paddock after time off..
currently in light work and an absolute pleasure!
Been trail ridden solo many times and is super easy.
He hadn’t been on a float in a few years when I picked him up and he was hesitant loading onto my float at first but went on a travelled like a dream. I have loaded him several times since and he’s walked straight on. I would expect him to probably hesitate going onto a new float the first time on his own, he floats like a dream!

A very kind push button ride, point and shoot to jump and no rubbish. Naturally up in front but works in a soft frame when asked, will be a little forward but comes back under when asked, and great breaks!
He’ll be a great horse for the whole family but I won’t sell to a Begginer or nervous rider, he has a few too many buttons for that.

He is a small horse, he rides small, he is small 🤣 especially for a TB! Absolutely stunning head on him, definitely in cob sized gear! Would do well as a hack but this is definitely not my area 🤣

Ahead of tomorrows predictions for hectic fire conditions I just want to put it out there we have plenty of room here for horses long term a short term.

While we are currently under no threat personally this could change quickly we the weather predicted for tomorrow.

Please call Grace 0488416669 if you are needing a safe place for your horses, we have many empty paddocks available with plenty of feed! We also have stables for tricky horses. I’ll happily do full care until you’re back on your feet!
Even if your paddocks are just dirt radiant heat kills! If you can leave and leave early!

Please leave early! Hopefully no one needs to evacuate but I have seen first hand how quickly things can turn deadly! Have a plan! We have had plenty of notice of these conditions coming so be prepared!

As sound and blemish free as a horse can come!
Fabulous feet and an even better brain!
Vice free, although will chew the odd lead rope in the float 😂

While Mitch is unfortunately not mine personally I have been lucky enough to campaign him the past 6 months.
I was only ever able to ride Mitch at comps and he has always been an absolute pleasure!

Mitch’s first real competition was the Boneo off the track carnival where he far exceeded expectations and placed 3rd overall in his championship (70cm). He was extremely easy in the busy atmosphere and long travel/ camping.
Not matey, super easy to keep clean! No white legs in site 😍
He’s then gone on to many other competitions quickly stepping up in the heights and competing competitively up to 105cm with huge potential to go as high as you want!
He’s quick and clean against the clock, and an absolute natural!

3 smooth rocking horse paces, a point and shoot approach to a fence and a can do attitude Mitch is the full package!
He does best with a bold rider, he has an incredibly soft mouth and appreciates forgiving hands in return. Been ridden by multiple people who all have the same opinion of him that I do!

While he hasn’t tried eventing yet I think with his beautiful movement, bold and clean jump he could excel!
He has the brain to be a ARC and PC mount also, he shows huge versatility and I think the sky’s the limit with this guy.
While he’s still relatively green in some areas he far makes up for that in natural ability.

If you are looking for a future superstar that almost too good to be true then Mitch could be your man! If you like the sound of him a test ride will blow your mind 😍

Mitch will be competing both days at both the mount gambier young rider carnival and caramut young rider carnival with a new rider who’s only sat on him once previously (and also loved him)

He’s available to view in Casterton SW vic
I’m not his owner but will pass on the owners contact information to serious homes.
I am also very happy to have a chat with any interested parties about Mitch, I have got to know him very well over the past 6 months!

Full history is known and the best home is of most importance.

Offers around $10k are considered

Find me a cooler horse! I dare you 😂🫣 frosty wins the fancy dress hit and hurry first horse on course, a rider who couldn’t see or breathe and he managed to have the quickest clear round! Side note he had never seen this unicorn suit until I got on him for this class 😂 frosty has been undefeated on day one of the Casterton show! I just couldn’t love this horse anymore if i tried! He also used his clerking skills today helping keep a horse that was on his toes together and his influence worked a treat! All the carrots for frost!!!

Grab yourself a bargin.

Bridie Jean, was pulled from the paddock today and taken to her second outing, and what a pleasure she was all day! Happily tied to the float away from her mate with not a care in the world, I not once had to worry about her.

Saddle up jump on and went! No rubbish at all, even stood around and waited well for her turn each class.

She’s as green as grass, she’s no world be**er showjumper but she has seen showjumps no more than three times, and with very little consistency! Never stops, very point and shoot but at this stage she’s all legs 😂

A beautiful mare to have around, easily runs barefoot, great teeth, currently on grass and two very basic maintenance feeds a day. Super easy to tie up, float both straight and angle. No vices, however she’s not a horse that catches you in the paddock if you’re holding a halter, no halter she’s your best friend.
Not marey, lives with two geldings and a mare currently and she’s happily down the bottom of the pecking order.

She’s lovely and quiet however forward moving And as green as they come!
I’m back at work full time now so she will be getting very little work!

I have had her advertised for $2000 with little interest, so we are quite negotiable to a great competent home!

Look down the posts from this page and you will find her original add for more specific details.

Located Casterton, I have limited days for viewings now as I’m back at work and show Season kicking off but I will do my best to work with you.

Make and offer ☺️
