Hi, just read your ad - i have a lovely 4yo, 15h s/bred geld who i've rescued off the track, broken to saddle and started general pony club activities incl jumping on. He trails very well and is trustworthy enough for my 3yo daughter to handle. He has been ridden by beginners and kids and is so gentle. He has only been broken to saddle since Jan 05 and has trained in harness however this was not a nice experience for him and i have not persued this field. Only selling due to too many horses and not enough time to keep them all fit and only want "Bayley" to go to a nice home where he will earn the ropes and have some fun! Only aksing $1000.00 Horse is located in north Brisbane

Hi Karen your horse sounds lovely but it is very important that the horse I get is settled into harness. I have plans if I get an ex-trotter and he is very settled in harness so in the future I can work with a sulky and have an interest for my brother who is a quadriplegic. After much discussion with "my husband" we are keen to adopt one through the association or buy one off the track for a reasonable price and if not broke to saddle do this (we have alot of knowledable people who are also getting interested in this venture). I have put ads on many horse sites but am beginning to wonder where all these ex-trotters are... We are people who have always had horses and will give a horse a very good and loving home. So will keep trying to be patient and hope the right horse comes along. Thanks for answering my letter, I look in this forum every day so it was great in itself "I got an answer". Hope you find a good home for "Bayley". Did you originally get him from the standardbred association?

Yes, I hope you find a good name for Bayley as he must be a lovely horse to have the same name spelt the same way as mine!

I hope you all find the horses you are looking for and the homes for the California horses. I'm not in there much but plan to be mroe so. I Have an ex trotter mare myself and live in Pennsylvania USA. Does Australia have harness horse adoption programs? That is how my mare came to me.
