Description: Meet Sammy, a sweet Standardbred gelding with a heart as big as his stature. Sammy has been eagerly embracing desensitizing and groundwork sessions, showcasing his lovely balance as he lunges gracefully in both walk and trot, regardless of direction. His friendly disposition and an eagerness to please make him an absolute joy to work with.

Sammy's track record speaks volumes, having retired from a prolific harness racing career with 220 starts and an impressive $640,000 in winnings. He even stands like a gentleman on cross ties and for the farrier, demonstrating his good manners.

We have recently been working with Sammy under saddle which is an exciting phase in his journey towards a new career. Given his impressive background in harness racing, transitioning to riding requires patience and careful training to ensure a smooth and successful assimilation. Sammy's eager and willing nature, combined with consistent and positive reinforcement as well as intermediate/advanced knowledge, will play a pivotal role in his successful transition to a riding career.

Keep an eye out for updates on this sweet horse with the race name "Sam Hill," born on April 19, 2006, and destined for a bright future beyond the racetrack.
