Horse: Blue, a 13-year-old 16.1-hand bay Standardbred gelding in Saunderstown, R.I.
Organization: The Santana Center



Blue is a drop-dead gorgeous Standardbred gelding who is joining the Santana Center all the way from California! He is a retired racehorse who is ready for his next career in dressage, eventing, or whatever direction you would like to take him in! He has lovely ground manners, but lots of energy, so he is for an experienced adopter only. Blue is currently in training with Horses with Hope in Maine. To learn more about Blue, you can find him on their website at www.horseswithhopeme.org/blue-standardbred-gelding.
