Get to Know Adoptable Horse Big City Seven

Big City Seven, AKA “Seven,” had previously been ridden before coming to Purple Haze. He is young and may need someone who will be patient with him and who will help him continue to learn and grow. He has a quirky, goofy personality and never fails to put a smile on your face.

Seven has a nice, forward walk and comfortable trot. He has a lovely canter as well. Seven is great on the trails and will go out alone or with others. He will need an experienced rider.

Seven participated in the 2024 Standardbred Nationals this year and did Purple Haze proud! He won first place in his conformation and WTC class.
