This is a very pretty, big bodied, sound pacing mare.  Formica has a large kind eye and long neck.  She is well balanced with clean legs and good feet.  Formica is by the great Little Brown Jug winner Life Sign.  She was second in the $70,000 LaPaloma stakes at two and took a nice record of p,2,1:58.1f.   Formica was bred at three and produced five foals, all fillies.  Two have raced well, but not attained the brilliance necessary for this mare to be commercially profitable.  Therefore, Formica was sent to New Vocations to be developed for a new career.  This lovely mare is transitioning as a pleasure mount under Stacy Thompson.  He said, “Formica has a very good single footing gait and will make a fast speed racking mare.  If shod properly, she could be a show horse.  She will make a lead horse.  She goes where you point her.  She stands quietly to be mounted, walks calmly away from the barn, and stands still when you stop her.”  Fromica is being adopted without registration papers, but comes with her performance record and five generation pedigree.  She is being placed from Stacy Thompson’s farm near Monterey, TN.  To discuss this mare call Stacy at (931) 303-3060.  Approved adopters can fax a contract to him, attn Pat Thompson at (931) 526-4601.
