Thanks to CANTER NE for making it possible
to place so many Thoroughbreds into good homes!
This is an updatefrom CANTER
NE - MONDAY, 9/20/04
Good morning everyone,
Below is an updated list of which horses are sold, or which are available
for adoption. We were also fortunate to partner with the Thoroughbred
Retirement Foundation (TRF) to help acquire several horses
which were then donated to the TRF for rehabilitation or permanent
retirement. Our thanks to Ray Roy of the TRF for his tireless efforts
to help the horses at the Northampton Fair.
Horses purchased by CANTER
NE
- now in local CANTER-approved foster homes, and available for
adoption...unless their foster moms/dads fall in love with these sweethearts
first :
1. No Time Soon: A cute, Black Beauty-esque, sweet
and sensible little 5-year-old stallion who is soon to become a gelding
- but shhh, don't tell him that! He has an old knee injury but has
been trail ridden and even jumped on the farm:
2. Leader's Choice: A tall, rangy, good-looking
4-year-old chestnut gelding. No photo of him but will be sure to get
one from his foster home. Foster mom says he is WONDERFUL and has
settled in beautifully--calm, sweet, easy to handle. This horse is
a KNOCKOUT!!!
3. Dancing Chevron: A beautiful, gentle chestnut
mare who has been both a racehorse and a mom in her career. Just look
at that face!
4. Iron Clad Proof: A calm, pretty, kid-safe 6-year-old
mare with big ankles but such a great attitude that they don't matter!
Another one we didn't have time to get a photo of, but will share
those her foster mom sends us.

Others who bought Northampton horses, please feel free to email us
so that we can update the list.
Of those who did not sell, the vast majority are going on to race
at other tracks. If there was a horse that you were interested in
who fits that category, and we'll see if we can track down the trainer
if you can't get ahold of him or her. The very sweet and cute mare
Karat Tales will also be available once she runs one more
time at Finger Lakes Racetrack. 4 years old, beautiful with dapples
everywhere and just so unhappy as a racehorse. She is 15.2/15.3 hands
with a big round build. Call Tony Tamburino at 813-230-1581 and make
an offer.
For all those who were interested in Salt Lake Express:
he is still for sale and let me tell you, he is drop-dead-gorgeous
and mellow as can be for a stallion. He also has a wonderful story
that his owner can share with you. Call Dave at 774-229-6715 if you're
interested - I think Salt Lake will be at Suffolk Downs, but not sure.
Thank you again, everyone who volunteered, who gave donations, who
stepped up to foster and/or who opened their hearts to one of these
horses. It was a wonderful effort!
