Finally new horse [[pictures]]

I think I talked aout him before. He is a ex cart racer so he paces alot when I try to get him into a trot canter and gallop. He is getting alot better but still needs alot of work. I finally got pictures of him. Although he has his gross winter coat and is really swseaty. Needless to say these pictures suck.

His name is Richie and I'm pretty sure he is a Standardbred.

That's it.

He's handsome. And omg you have snow, NO fair!

CONGRATULATIONS, ALICIA! He's beautiful. :)

Hye, Hi Ritchie! You found yourself one wonderful home! Alicia will be so NICE to you, you will love it there. And now you are a member of the Pet Talk family too, that means lots of good wishes coming your way!

Alicia, I never thought winter coats were "gross!" Different, yeah,wedon't often see them. I think it makes the horse look more like a stuffed animal, full of thick hair, ha ha! Best with your new addition!

Hahaha he's a cutie!

Hello Richie,

You are definately a cute horse:D And I think your owner is correct, you look very much like a standardbred. Welcome to the life of PT! I can't wait to see more pictures of your pretty face:)

Wow! Richie is one beautiful horse. Congratulations!

He's handsome even in his winter coat. Is he yours or lease?

Thanks, ya he's a lease. And he is for sure a Standardbred.

He looks so calm and comfortable.. and his coloring is real pretty. =D
Congratulations on the new guy!

;) ;) This baby is so Adorable.. great pics thanks

Um, EXCUSE me Ms. Alicia, I have not heard about this horse!?!

He is GORGEAUS!! Just wait until that coat goes away, he will be stunning! :eek: I'm very jealous! :o I want an ex racer, but a Thuroughbred.... *dreaming* Congrats, I can't wait to see more pictures, even if you do think he looks like crap, I think he is beautiful!

Aw, he's very handsome even with his winter coat, congratulations Alicia! :D

Maybe it's me, but is that bit a little low in his mouth? Perhaps it's his standardbred roman nose playing tricks on my eyes. :p

I wouldnt exactly recomend one for riding. This guy has been so hard to get him to stop pacing, we dont have regular racing here only carts so I dont know if they pace or not but itso freakin uncomfortable. I can't wait till his coat gose away too he looks so much better. He is one of the barn owners horses (the barn Trigger and Rowdy and Buddy were at so I've known Richie for a long time) but she sold him to a girl who used to ride Trigg and who I'm friends with and she said I can lease him for $100/115 a month!!:eek: There was no way I would pass that down.

Zara I'm pretty sure it's not too low:confused: I think your just going crazy:p :D

What a pretty horse! Haha pacing doesn't seem very comfortable to ride to... I love his face! WOW that's really cheap! You're so lucky to have your own horse(sorta)! I can't wait until I can lease/own my own horse. It would be a QH or QHxTB :] Haha thats not gonna happen for a LOOOOONG time :D

Good luck with him!

What a gorgeous guy! Congrats!

Wooow just beautiful
