(view all 2008 TB Adopted)

Santa is an elegant gelding with a lot of personality. He is a confident gelding and uncomplicated horse to ride. He raced 30 times won over $150,00 and retired in March.  Upon retirement he had a mild case of EPM which we treated here at New Vocations.  He has been fully rehabbed and is now being ridden 3 days a week.  Santa is quickly gaining muscle tone back and is doing well (his video and photos are current taken in 6/24/09).  During his race career his only injury was a knee chip in 2008.  Surgery was done to remove the chip and he returned to run in three races in 2009.  His knee looks good and x-rays were clean.  Santa should be suitable for dressage or pleasure riding.  He could also do some recreational jumping in the near future.  He has a great mind and is not spooky or flighty.
