Hi Off Track friends!
If you can go to this original post of Alliance Equine’s and sauce Gaby Wall’s comment nominating Lauren Foster and OTQH Hez Hott Ur Nott a like to have a chance to run in the Shakedown you’d be the best!

“Charlie” caught our eye as a two year old on track in 2023 and when the opportunity to own him came around we knew Lauren was the right one to tell. These two are gonna do big things and there’s no rider as deserving!!!

TIA

“Charlie”
Fast Delila Destiny

15hh 2016 AQHA 🎀

Charlie is an “in your pocket”, meet you at the gate kinda gal. Happy in a small group, mixed herd etc. Sits low-middle on the totem pole. Confident on a trail, ba****ck and around cows. Trail ride one day, jackpot the next. Great for trims and farrier but does require a little patience for her fronts.

2D/3D locally - 3D/4D larger events
18.7s on a standard pattern with room for more speed. L or R first barrel but more consistent and confident to the left.
Charlie has gymkhana’d and is loping poles, would be a lovely pole horse with more patterning.

Requires front shoes and minor maintenance to perform her best (hock inj).
UTD on her 2025 inj, vx/wormer, teeth and farrier. No lasix.

A little OTTB where are they now!
2020 vs 2025

JC from left to right: Fire Tracks, Spin a Tale, Woodbridge Miss, Herecomesthepain and Family Day

there really is nothing better than seeing an ottb land exactly where they belong with a person who gets them and in a career they love. these horses can do everything when given the chance. as always: (and cannot stress this enough) go get yourself a racehorse.

Honourable mentions of Zucchini and Our Money Cat in the comments!!

on a side note i know i’ve been out of the game for a little bit but with not racing as much this summer Im gonna have some free time and if you need a let down for an off track or some restart miles ill have limited spots avail!!

“Platinum”

2024 Grade QH Pink Halter

Purchased with the intent to keep and have started in the spring but checking if there’s any interest in her now due to some consistency constraints on my end!

Sound, sane and smart. has all her groundwork, has been worked over obstacles and has carried the pad and saddle not done up, she side passes to a mounting block and she’s pretty much ready to start in every other way for spring.

Only con is she can be a bit difficult to catch, would recommend a small pen or using grain for now, improves when caught regularly!

Has been penned in mixed herds/on her own, ponied, trailered a couple times, been in an indoor arena, exposed to tractors, dogs etc.

UTD on feet/dewormer

🎉LEASED/ON TRIAL🎉

My 2026 is not going to be horse focused so I have the big B up for lease Or if you fit just right I might let you ✨ take her ✨

Info below - I’m picky, she isn’t. Shoot me a message for more videos/photos etc!

Blondie
JC: Woodbridge Miss
2015 TB Mare
16hh

This horse will give her all to anything you point her at from working cows to skijoring but we have focused mostly on barrels. Youth/handy peewee safe, adjusts to her rider, will absolutely crush a run or babysit you depending on what you ask of her. 2D/3D in the youth at big/small races, 3D/4D in the open with me (but is faster with anyone else on board).

Ideally you have a handy peewee looking for an honest horse who puts the same pattern down every time or a pushy youth who’s going to send her.

Can answer any and all questions. I know her inside out. Have worked with her since 2018 and owned since 2019.

Loads, Ties for hours, Bathes, Stands for the farrier like a champ etc. Not quirky or a typical mare. She’s middle of a herd, holds her own but won’t go out of her way. Main flaw is she drools like a mastiff - has been vetted and this is just her.

UTD on vx/wormers/farrier - I keep her in shoes Spring-Fall when she’s running regularly.

Does require basic annual maintenance, ppe welcome at buyers expense. February 2025 x-rays available. Does best on 24/7 forage but doesn’t require too much extra feed wise.

Lease is first choice.

Will be willing to sell if it’s the exact fit. Lower 5 digits - above 10### below 20###. In absolutely no rush to sell (if at all) and it’ll be to the perfect home not first home.

Located near Hay Lakes
- will be at OCBC, Maxine Memorial and the Switch Up or can meet at localish jackpots

✨Anyone looking for a wicked all arounder??

I’ve personally known this horse since he was 5 and between myself and current owner we can answer all Q’s and provide pictures galore!✨

2009 sorrel gelding
AQHA but Grade
*was papered but they were lost - no chance of papers sorry! (they were pretty heavy on the cowbred side (peptoboonsmal))

He has truly been there done that. 1D/2D local jackpot horse 2D/3D bigger jackpot horse with many wins under his belt in the open and youth, absolutely no funny business in the arena or alley. Runs consistently mid 18's to low 19's on a standard. Was used as a pony horse on the track for a few years, spent a year penning and qualified for Nationals, has extensive trail riding experience and has been to the backcountry. He is quirky but broke as they come - has packed kids around and is a handy youth horse but not for beginners. Swing on him ba****ck after 6 months off, take him for any job and he will likely excel. Hauler and farriers dream.
Requires quiet rider with quiet hands.

Some reasonable maintenance required - will discuss with interested parties.

Asking low 5's for a 5⭐️ home (this is a must)

Will be picky where he goes and preference to a sorting/penning/ranch home. Will be available early September.

Currently located Sherwood Park AB, will be in Jasper AB mid Sept.

🎉🐎🎉OFF TRACK QH🎉🐎🎉

Goodest
By Stel Corona and out of a Seperatist mare. 103 SI, stakes winner of $ 45000 CND. He was the All Canadian Open Derby Champion in 2015.

He ran his last race in 2016 and was restarted by Katie Vinson.

He is patterned on the barrels, can go left or right. Runs on lasix, super simple regimen. He’s an outstanding trail mount. Crosses water, trees, rides down the highway with zero issues. He rides well in groups or alone.

He has the biggest heart and wants to please his rider. Very talented horse, nice mover and naturally athletic.

UTD on yearly maintenance. Does require injections (Done April 28th of this year)

His only downfall is he’s not a fan of cows. Our neighbour has mini cows and those don’t bother him but regular sized cows he can smell from a mile away.

Have full medical history from Track to Now. Willing to disclose to seriously interested parties. Have recent x-rays etc.

Selling because I am recovering from a knee surgery and he’s deserves to be someone’s number one.

💕COURTESY POST💕

Can personally vouch for this horse and have seen her in action many times!!

“Lulu”
17 yo mare
15.3hh

Lulu is a sweet, willing horse with a lot of heart and loves her job. Lulu has competed at college and high school rodeos, as well as some amateur events. She places in the 1D/2D range for jackpots. She runs well on any ground and in any arena, making her a reliable choice for someone looking for a competitive barrel horse.

She’s a great option for a handy youth rider looking for a step-up horse or for someone who wants a solid jackpot horse. Lulu can be strong at times, so she’s best suited for a rider with experience who’s looking for a reliable and fun partner.

Easy to haul and load

Stands well for the farrier

Good on trail rides and around cows

Has been ridden ba****ck

UTD on farrier, vaccines, and deworming

Runs on Lasix

Lulu is in shape and ready to compete. She's a great horse for anyone looking for a solid, seasoned partner.

Location: Vermillion (can bring to Sherwood Park)

Videos in comments! Can put you in touch with owner 😊

Shivasana
JC: Family Day
2017 Dark Bay Mare
15.3-16hh (will stick her) Well built, bred nicely

“Shiv” as she’s affectionately known is a 7 year old mare, who retired off the track in the fall of 2020. Was restarted correct and slow with some outdoor and trail miles then spent 3 months at Sawatzky Equine for a full restart western, has also had 90 days with Celeste Huska under english tack. Goes both english and western but does best english. She is a mare and acts as such and is quirky on the ground when not in regular work but always fantastic under saddle. Needs a proper workload to stay sane and owner is unable to provide that at this time. Would also make a wicked broodmare.

Loads well, lives happily in a herd setting (mixed or not) or stalls as needed.
UTD on vx/feet/wormer. good for vet work and farrier, is currently barefoot. Good Keeper, Light Maintenance.

Have full history of this mare available to interested parties!

Located Calgary area, can put you in touch with owner. Have lots of video & tons of photos.

PM For Price!

From a courtesy post before the Jasper fires to spending a total of 2 days at my place - Star has sold!

This lovely pony has found a new home with 5 children to love her 🥰

Do you have a horse that isn’t seeming to want to sell or can’t just find the right home? Reach out! My track record is solid and I love matching horses with their forever homes 🐎

Courtesy Pony Post:

Yogi (Buckskin Appy) & BooBoo (Bay Roan Appy)
Both 2 years old & gelded. Yogi is extremely friendly and first to the gate. BooBoo was orphaned and is a little more reserved. He’s the sweetest boy once he warms up to you. Yogi had an underbite and it has been looked at by the vet. It does not affect his ability to eat. Yogi is also sickle (cow) hocked. He has been saddled and rode lead line by my 4 year old son and it has not affected him.
My 2 year old daughter rides BooBoo leadline.
I would not consider them broke but they are started.

Teeth were done last year. Feet are done regularly and get trimmed tomorrow (august 30). UTD on Wormer and Vaccines.

Asking 6️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ for Yogi
Asking 8️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ for BooBoo
Or 1️⃣4️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ for the pair.
