News: July: My Baby Girl has just been listed in the Midwest. This nicely bred 1996 Kentucky broodmare is available after winning 90K on the track! Take a look. June: CANTER West Virginia has a herd dispersal going on with some very nice mares listed. A nice pair of mares just listed in the Western region, and one in the East. Just returned from the Rolex Three Day Event in Lexington, Kentucky. It was a wonderful time, and I was excited to see so many rehoming organizations represented there, such as New Vocations and the Throughbred Adoption Network. I also stopped by Old Friends, the living racing museum/retirement home for Thoroughbred stallions and other racehorses in Georgetown, Kentucky. They are also doing wonderful things, and have a mare herd of their own. The other encouraging fact I discovered at Rolex is the Thoroughbred is back for upper level eventing, after a trend toward competing warmbloods. There was at least one OTTB gelding competing at the 4* level. Even better, a good number of hard knocking mares were well represented! The ladies were showing what they could do! April: Dustee Bottle was sold through the site! A number of nice new mares have been added to the Midwest listings. March 30: Congratulations to three more mares that have gcone on to good homes. March 15 -- Congratulations to Run the Red, who found a new home through this site! March 8 -- new listing, Gaelic Vixen in the Western region, a mare with a wonderful sporthorse pedigree in foal to Sagar, perlino WB stallion. I have new listings for a number of nice mares in Virginia that need new homes, owner is going out of business. In our Western listings, two mares have sabino characteristics! Color breeders, go take a look. Recently, I have had some questions about what sort of mares can be listed. Despite the website name, I welcome any thoroughbred mares regardless of potential ability. If your mare can only be a companion, that's fine, or if she should go to a show home, that's fine too! Why take any ad? Because the more people that visit the site, the better the chances that the aged mares will get a look and get placed. Lots more listings, so I have divided the ads into regions. Shippers go everywhere, though, so don't be deterred by distance. The first mare has been sold! Congratulations June on the sale of Foxy Sombrero! TBBroodmares was featured on Fugly Horse of the Day on February 10! Thank you. For a wonderful success story about reschooling an older mare, be sure to read Nina's Story. We have a baby Facebook page! Help me make it grow. Look under Thoroughbred Broodmares. |
