"Rocky"
Found a Home
Click here to
see his pedigree.
Click here to see his race history.
Eastbound is a beautiful bay
Thoroughbred gelding who stands 17.2 hands. He is very kind and 8 years
old.
He doesn't have any vices, but has
suffered from epm and we've treated him with Marquis. His former owners
did not treat him and allowed the disease to progress significantly before we
got him here. Consequently he has muscle atrophy and will need
rehabilitation in the form of hacking in order to see how much he will recover.
We are planning to begin this in
the next two weeks. We are looking to either rehome him permanently or to
find a foster to do this work for us.
|
|
We always
have a long wait list to get into Leighton Farm and due to the long time
commitment involved with Rocky, we would like to find someone to be his
benefactor.
We have
started hacking him around the farm and while is is weak, he is being a perfect
gentleman.
If you are
interested in helping with Rocky through either adoption or foster care, please
contact me.

race record.
Cal is a 16 hand,
incredibly friendly chestnut Thoroughbred gelding. He just arrived at
Leighton Farm yesterday, January 1, 2012. Happy New Year Cal!
He raced three times
but does not want to be a racehorse - he really never did.
He is a very nice
mover and four years old. Call has no vices or soundness issues. He
has been lovingly trained by his breeders, a husband and wife team at Bowie
Training Center.

for video.
I'm really tight on time so I have to do things when I can. It
happened that when he arrived on the farm, it was sunny and nice.
I also had volunteers here to do the filming. so less than two
hours after he arrived at Leighton Farm, I got on him and we made
the video.
I
think this demonstrates what an especially nice horse, Cal is.
He's going to make someone a happy horse owner and I don't think there's
anything this boy can't do.
Cal is up to date on his vaccinations and has a current coggins.

Cal is
priced at $1,000 and is located at Leighton Farm in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

"Delilah"
Click here to see her pedigree.
Click here to see her race history.
Delilah is
a gorgeous gray Thoroughbred filly who had an
unremarkable and consequently short racing career.
Our volunteer remarked to the trainer that she bet the
track announcer had a tough time with her name during
the race, but he responded that the announcer didn't
need to say it very often. Her registered name is
WhyWhyDelilah.
Delilah is
three years old and
stands 16 hands already. She's going to be one
big girl once she grows up!
Delilah has
no vices and is perfectly sound. No racing
injuries, not fast enough.

Click here to see her video.
She has been
introduced to cross
ties and is very good for a greenie. She ships
like a dream and is easy to work with on the ground.
At the present time, I am hacking her on the farm and
not working her in the arena at all. I feel she is
too young for that sort of work right now. In 30
or 60 days I will begin ring work and her price will be
adjusted to reflect that. In the video, that is
the first time I was ever on her (volunteers have been
hacking her). It was also her first time in the
arena. I think it's obvious how nice this filly
is.
Delilah is
available for a tax deductible donation to Thoroughbred
Placement and Rescue, Inc. of $ 2,500 and is located at
Leighton Farm in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.
Please contact me for more information.

"Jaks"

Home

Click here to see her race history.
Jaks is a
five year old Not For Love filly who was a good
racehorse. She recently lost her interest and
rather than continue to run her or worse send her to a
lesser track, her trainer retired her. She is a
lucky girl as she retires completely sound of mind and
body.
Jaks stands
a tad over 16 hands and has no vices. She is up to
date on vaccinations and has a current coggins.
She is an
elegant mover with tons of potential.

She cross
ties, ships and is easy to work with on the ground.
Jaks is currently hacking on the farm, learning to longe
and is beginning work in the arena. I am focusing
on walk and trot but have cantered her and it is a
lovely, naturally balanced gait.
Jaks is
available for a tax deductible donation to Thoroughbred
Placement and Rescue, Inc. of $ 2,500 and is located at
Leighton Farm in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

"Constant
Star"
Click here

Click here
to see her race record.
Beautiful Star has been off the track since she was two, being
hacked and allowed to grow by a loving owner. Now at five
years old she has begun serious work.
I've had her here at Leighton Farm since September and have found
her to be a consummate lady. She has been building
strength and stamina and skills.
As she
builds up, we see her true potential. Star works well with
other horses or alone. She is turned out with three other
fillies and they are gal pals.
Star
is 16 hands and has no vices.
Click here to see
her videos. SShe just participated in her first dressage
show and won both classes with a 66 and 67%! I've added a video of
one of her tests.
Star
participated in her first jumper show on December 3, 2011 and
handled this new experience like a champion. I rode her in three 2' jumper classes.
Her second show was at Swan Lake in Pennsylvania. They had
a Christmas tree surrounded by reindeer in the center of the
course! Star handled it and continues to develop.
|
|
Star
shows great potential with jumping, being very cat like and smart.
Everyone working with her agrees that she
is very good with her knees. I am currently jumping her
twice per week over low obstacles and she likes it. She
has now shipped off the farm to work with David Loman, Jim Wofford
and Sharon White. Elizabeth Madlener is overseeing her
dressage development. She is cantering lines and doing basic
gymnastics. Star has jumped up to 3' at this point easily,
but she is schooling 2'6".
The more I do with this girl,
the more impressed I become. She has a great mind and
that's as important as the talent she is exhibiting.
Star
is offered for a $10,000 tax deductible donation to Thoroughbred
Placement and Rescue, Inc. She is stabled at Leighton Farm
in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.

"Eddie"
Sold
I know
what you're thinking, that's no Thoroughbred. True, but he
belongs to a Thoroughbred breeder and owner. He bought
Eddie for his grandson to show. His grandson turned 16,
got a driver's license and found girls. Bill needed my
help to sell Eddie.
Eddie
is a fancy, calm, dependable guy. He has learned how to
jump, but I would still consider him green. I sent him to
my H/J coach David Loman to evaluate him since Eddie is out of
my area of expertise. He likes him and rode him in the
video that is included in this description.
This
boy has a great future ahead of him as a show or pleasure horse.
He is a huge 16.3 hands and 6 years old.

video.
Totally non spooky or overreactive. That would burn too many
calories.
I
can say that I can safely put anyone on him and not have a
worry. He's a good guy.
He has
a current coggins and is up to date on vaccinations.
Eddie
is sound with no vices. He gets along well with others,
but his turn out buddy Doctor James is much faster than he is.
The
latest news is that Eddie participated in his first jumper show
on December 3, 2011. He never put a hoof wrong. No
refusals, just not fast around the course yet. He was in
the 2' classes. There are plans to do another jumper show
in December.

Eddie is a
registered Paint. His full name is TMF Mr. Ed's Barlink. You can
come see him at Leighton Farm and he is offered for $6,500.
