About Henry

Meet Henry, a 7yo Bay Standardbred gelding ready for his forever home! Henry retired from his racing career on 18 June, 2023, boasting an impressive record of 46 starts and earning $67,550 for his dedicated owner. His retirement was prompted by a bowed tendon, which, after a well-deserved six-month spell, has now fully healed.

Henry, is a cherished stable favourite, renowned for his gentle and friendly nature. He adores human companionship, displaying impeccable manners and proving to be excellent in all handling aspects – from shoeing and worming to tying up and floating. His exposure to farm machinery, vehicles, other animals, and children has been seamless, showcasing his adaptable and easygoing temperament. While not yet started under saddle, Henry, according to his owner, is a quick learner and would require minimal effort for someone with experience to educate him in their chosen discipline. He holds great potential as a pleasure harness horse, but would also be a perfect fit for trail riding, pleasure riding, and even in a show ring or dressage arena, where his charm is sure to shine.

Henry’s owner is eager to see him find a loving home where he will be loved and well cared for. If you are seeking a versatile equine companion with a heart of gold, consider adopting Henry – a true gentleman and a promising partner for your equestrian adventures!
