Patrick Sullivan (Modern-Day Horsemanship)Hope (Moms Carrie) is a 6-year-old unraced off-the-track Thoroughbred mare standing at 16.1 hands high. She has tight, clean legs with no prior injuries. Hope is a lovely, even tempered mare with impeccable ground manners and ready to go in any direction. During a recent visit from Patrick Sullivan he had this to say about her:Hope is a truly special horse. Shes beautiful, athletic, and very smart. She is going to be someones dream horse. In the right hands, the sky is the limit for what she can do. Shes incredibly talented and can do just about anything someone wants to do with their horse.Want proof? Just watch her entire video they actually drag a barrel behind her and she doesnt even flinch.Hope has been ridden extensively both in the ring and on the trail. On the trail, she is brave, can ride in the front or in the group or rides out alone. She is currently schooling over 2-23 courses and eagerly works with jumps, ground poles, cross rails, cavaletti, and at liberty. She has a great jump that would do well in the hunter ring, but she is just as happy riding cross-country or eventing or even just trail riding and wading through the water.Hope stands, ties, longes, and gets along with everyone at the barn. She can be a little testy with the geldings in the pasture during that time, though.Her gaits are very smooth, making her an easy ride for any discipline. She walks, trots, and canters under saddle in both English and western. She is so level-headed that Hidden Acres integrated her into their lesson program for the last year, in which has done really well. She is an extremely fast learner and executes easily. She listens to voice commands: walk, trot, canter, backup, easy, and whoa. She also moves off the leg, leg yields, side passes, and has lead changes (flying changes 90%). She has a great brain no buck/kick/rear/bite and lots of scope.She has graduated to trails and often likes to lead the pack. Shes extremely level-headed and rarely reacts to her surroundings but would work best for an intermediate rider.Hope consistently leads easily, has great ground manners. She stands quietly on cross-ties, for the farrier and when bathing. Hope has basic front shoes and is a relatively easy keeper who requires no special care. She is up to date on everything.Take advantage of Hidden Acres Valentines special by adopting Hope for $7500 (adoption must be completed in February).Photo courtesy Hidden Acres Rescue for ThoroughbredsContact Hidden Acres Rescue for Thoroughbreds today about ASPCA Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, Hope!ASPCA Right HorseASPCA Right Horse is the online adoption platform of The Right Horse Initiative, a collection of equine industry and welfare professionals and advocates working together to improve the lives of horses in transition.
