This week, we have a couple of wonderful off-track Thoroughbreds or OTTBs from New Vocations Medina, Ohio, facility who are seeking their next adventures through this adoption drive. One is a former steeplechaser who could transition his training to the eventing world. The other is a kind-hearted soul seeking a pleasure or trail-riding home.

Hooping
Our first OTTB through this adoption drive is Hooping. Calling all eventers! Are you looking for your next partner? Henry (race name Hooping) is quite the dude and is full of presence! This big bay raced as a steeplechaser and a flat-track horse, so jumping is nothing new to him. Henry naturally carries himself and has a beautiful, floating trot and a balanced canter. Henry is incredibly smart and athletic-we can’t wait to see where he goes! Tap here for Henry’s full profile.

Sweet Heat, known around the barn as Summer, is a true joy to have around! Kind and big-bodied, this 9-year-old, dark bay mare is a very willing partner; she listens well and has a fantastic brain. Summer is looking for a pleasure or trail riding home with an intermediate rider with a trainer. Tap here for Summer’s full profile.
