Description
Sweet mare Amber is looking for her forever home 💛
Amber is an unraced pocket rocket of a mare. After three trials she was retired in 2023 being proven unprofitable for racing. She is sweet, sensitive, and intelligent — not “marey,” just playful, willing, and always trying her best.
Before coming to me, at the end of 2024, Amber was lightly started and then turned out with minimal handling. Since then, she has blossomed with consistency and positive reinforcement training. She takes time to connect, but once she bonds, she shows her truly lovely nature and becomes a loyal companion.
Amber has a solid foundation in groundwork and works better bitless rather than a bit. While still green, she is progressing quickly and gaining strength and confidence with every ride. In April she attended her first show and handled the atmosphere beautifully. With further exposure, Amber has the potential to develop into a competitive dressage prospect, adult riders mount, or equally a lovely partner for hacking or liberty.
She lives out 24/7 with a gelding, she is not bossy with paddock mates, thrives on a grain-free diet, and like most OTTBs will require shoes when in work (fronts only). Up to date on all her care (physio, dental, vaccines etc.). Please note Amber is a very mild cribber, this is controlled with a collar, it hasn’t affected her condition etc. Amber cribs only when bored or uncomfortable; with adequate enrichment and mental stimulation, this behaviour is minimal to non-existent.
Amber is best suited to a confident, kind, and knowledgeable rider, who values trust and consistency. She is still learning — not a push-button ride — and will not tolerate rough handling. In the right hands, she will make someone as happy as she has made me.
➡️ Serious enquiries only – Please only enquire if you can genuinely offer Amber an experienced and kind home. No photo collectors, time wasters, no-shows, or hagglers will be entertained.
‼️ Genuine reason for sale – Due to work and study commitments Amber is regrettably for sale. She is currently in light work as I no longer have the time to give her the consistency she deserves. This is a hard sale, and I kindly ask that you respect my time and only enquire after reading the full advertisement.
📩 Message for more info, photos & videos. Viewings to be arranged in advanced.
❤️🩹 This gorgeous mare truly deserves a home as special as she is.
