OK, here is the name and bloodlines of the Morgan gelding bound for New Holland if not sold soon (owner is asking $800.00). Contact me, MaryAnn @ sablemare@alltel.net or better yet, Chris Mc @ ChrisMc47@yahoo.com if you know of anyone in the DE/MD/VA area, or anywhere, who would want this horse.

Subject: [FriendsOfValdez] Morgan Gelding needs to be rescued-URGENT

Hi All, I usually just lurk on here, but need to get
this out to as many folks as possible and am hoping
the FOV gang can come through.

Looking for someone in the Delaware/Maryland area that
would be willing to take a chance on a 5 year old
Morgan gelding who is more than likely going to be
sent to the New Holland, PA auction next Monday where
there would be a good chance he will go to the killers.

His story as I know it is this, his owner/breeder sent
him to a trainer for driving (don't know who the
trainer was). When he came back the owner couldn't
handle him and has now gotten disgusted and just wants
to unload him. My niece's boyfriend's Mom, Cindy has
him right now.she has 4 Clydesdales she drives and she
knows the owner of the Morgan, talked him into letting
her take him for awhile to see what she could do with
him. I saw him a couple weeks ago when I was visiting
my niece, he is a red chestnut with a blaze and hind
socks. I would guess him to about 15h. Type wise,
he's probably middle of the road, not old type, but
not real refined either. He is a good looking boy.
Cindy has driven him a couple times, she said he drove
fine the first time, the second time he tried cutting
up but she kept after him and he gave it up and drove
like he was supposed to. She is not a rider but did
hop up on him and ride him around the field without
any problems. Her opinion is that he found out
somewhere along the line that if he didn't want to do
something, if he acted up he got put away. He's not
getting away with that with Cindy and she says he been
coming along nicely for her.

Things apparently came to a head yesterday, his owner
came back from a trip doesn't want to wait any longer.
He told Cindy if she can find a buyer for him in the
next couple days fine...otherwise he's going to the
sale. He wants $800 for him. I should know his
breeding tomorrow. Cindy can't buy him or keep him,
she's having a hard time feeding the Clydes with the
price of hay. Also she doesn't really have a place to
put him. Her horses live out with run in sheds, she
can't put him with them, they beat him up. Now the
pen she had him in has flooded with all the rain they
have had and he's standing in mud.

Cindy is really upset over this, she really likes him,
says he has a sweet personality and just needs to
learn he can't always have his way. She said he is
teachable, he has improved since he's been with her.

I don't have a place of my own or I would take a
chance on him myself. I board Cappy and I can't
afford to board two horses and even if I could the
farm where Cappy is doesn't have any openings.

If anyone is interested or know anyone who might be
interested in him please let me know asap.

Thanks all.
