Adoption Overview $750

Camp Hope

7 year old thoroughbred gelding bred in KY
Summer Front (War Front) out of Praising by Pulpit
Eligible for the Retired Racehorse Project's
THOROUGHBRED MAKEOVER COMPETITION!

16.1 1/2 hands. He last worked on 12/11/28 and retired with a left front suspensory tear. He also has a left front ankle chip that can be taken out if used for an athletic career. He also has an old splint fracture in the same leg. He is on stall rest until 2/20/25. He can then begin round pen turnout for 30 days ending on 3/20/25. An ultrasound will be needed at that point to determine his full turnout options if the suspensory has healed.

Hope is absolutely stunning with his almost black coat, diamond shaped star and beautiful, big brown eyes! He is as kind as he is handsome. He does like to take things in and took about a day to settle into our farm. He seems intelligent and inquisitive. He is respectful of his handlers and is good for grooming and blanketing. He behaves well when being lead but can be reactive to sounds. We expect this to improve as he settles in and gets turnout.

Hope is available to anyone now who can accommodate his rehab needs and will follow the recommended vet requirements.

We are hopeful he will be suitable for any discipline; however, this will be determined in March once the suspensory has healed fully.
