Our horses > success stories > Cherish the GroomCherish the Groom - Now For Sale - October 2008October 1 , 2008Hi Elizabeth. Remember me, Cindel Alles from Wewahitchka, Florida? I bought Cherish the Groom through you. Anyway, I have come to the sad conclusion that I want to sell her. You had once told me, that because of her looks, to notify you if I ever wanted to sell her. I just love her so much, she is such a sweetheart, but I just don’t want a horse that requires so much riding to be quiet and easy! She was in training for six months last year, being ridden every day and she was great! I brought her home where she continued to do well. But I have learned that in order for her to continue to do well that she needs to be ridden 5-6 days a week. She hasn’t one mean bone in her body, she is just shall we say “spirited”. I also do not have a trainer down here, due to my location, which makes it extra hard. What I really want is an easily ridable horse, preferably TB, that is not so high maintenance. I know that it does come with the breed but I have been told that she is exceptionally high strung, even for an OTTTB. She is as sound as Rocky Mountain trail horse and is one of the most lovable horses I have known. Ground manners, with the exception of trailering and clippers, are great. She fell in the trailer a while back and since that time does not like to be loaded. She eventually goes in but sometimes takes a while. She has never seen a vet, at least since I have had her. We do all our own shots, worming etc. and her teeth get done 2X a year. She is very healthy. Let me know what you think. I think that she has excellent jumper potential. Your website continues to be great!! Cindel Alles FOR SALE: Cherish the Groom7 year old registered TB gray mare. By Groomstick and out of Bob’s Little Gal. 16H.This is a beautiful gray mare with a very sweet disposition. Her coloring is actually darker than photos but she has lightened up because she has been turned out 24/7 since spring.Judging from her confirmation and training, this horse makes a great jumper prospect. Last year (2007), she received 7 months professional training and did well. She was started over fences while in training but has not been jumped since last fall as I did not have any jumps! I have ridden her mostly on the trail until recently. She does well on the flat.and knows leads, backs, and is learning side pass etc. Just recently I purchased jumps and she has done quite well. I wanted to start showing her but there are no English shows within a 3 hour drive for me.I am selling her only because I live in a remote area of northwest Florida and the only riding around my area is Western and barrel racing. For now I have decided to give up English for barrel racing.She is a very pretty horse. She can be a handful to ride however, especially in cooler weather. She would do best with an experienced rider or even with a trainer to get her quieted down. But her confirmations and color would really be a standout in the show ring.Click here to see Cherish the Groom's pedigree.
