Meet Beignet, foaled March 8, 2013. Beignet exudes charisma and warmth, captivating everyone he meets with his sweet and sensitive nature. Successfully adopted in May 2022, he honed his skills in jumping and dressage with a dedicated trainer before returning in September 2023 (through no fault of his own), ready for new adventures. Beignet shows great promise as a hunter and/or dressage prospect, demonstrating his ability to excel in these disciplines with his graceful movement and eagerness to engage.
Beignet is a pleasure to work with, forming strong bonds with both humans and horses. He is well-mannered, cross ties easily, enjoys being bathed, and loads like a dream. Beignet stands quietly for the farrier, reflecting his calm demeanor.
Under saddle, Beignet displays confidence with graceful movement and collects well. He loves arena work and is eager to please, demonstrating a smart and level-headed approach. He is responsive and in tune with your body and cues, listening well to your seat.
Beignet thrives when given a job to do, making him an ideal partner for someone who can provide him with the engagement he craves. He is super responsive and does need a strong, confident rider, as he is a bold and strong horse. Forward yet steady, he holds his pace and is ready for his next adventure.
All of our retired racehorses participate in our equine-assisted interventions and Veterans vocational horsemanship education programs (see heroeshorses.org). We work with each horse on the ground and under saddle (English and Western) before determining their strengths and suitability for various disciplines.
