Biscuit is a 2012 gelding who retired from racing in 2019 - approx 15.1hh (unofficial). Biscuit is more woah than go, he is quiet, sound and genuinely wants to be someones best friend. He has been exposed to all aspects of farm life (tractor, chainsaw, mower, bonfires, cows etc) and nothing has phased him in the time we have had him. Biscuit is looking to start his post racing career now through no fault of his - I originally got him in late 2019, but with my own pregnancies, work etc I just have not had the time to give him. After a prolonged spell he has been brought back in and did not blink an eye - no buck, bolt, rear etc. He is kind and willing, right down to being used as a lead horse for my young kids, and is their best friend to brush and feed. He is ridden in a snaffle and carries himself in a natural frame. Unfortunately he is too small for me to continue with, and with my lack of time he needs to go. I truly do believe he will make an excellent allrounder for a teenager or small adult. Very negotiable on price, he is currently in light work, barefoot and ready to go. Located Mid North Coast NSW.
