Adoption Overview $950

Konecny

3 year old thoroughbred gelding bred in KY
Independence Hall (Constitution) out of Winningisfun by Distorted Humor
Eligible for the Retired Racehorse Project's
THOROUGHBRED MAKEOVER COMPETITION!

15.3 hands and growing. He never raced and has only one published work. He retired in March 2025 with a slab fracture to the right knee. He is now sound and ready to get back under saddle.

Konecny is a gentle soul with 2 year old energy. He is well behaved for his handlers and walks politely on a lead rope. He stands nicely for grooming and is quiet in his stall and when turned out. He does like to play with his next door neighbor when stalled in a playful way.

He is full of personality and loves attention and neck scratches. He respects his handlers and was well behaved for his pictures, vet and farrier. 

His first ride went well and he was well behaved and cooperative. He has a nice gait and seems to have some athletic ability. He did well on a quick trip around the farm and didn't spook or react to anything.

He should be suitable for any discipline.

As always PPE is recommended for an athletic career.

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS EVENT: All horses will be half off the listed adoption fee if adopted and picked up by 12/15/25. Limited use horses and companions will have a waived fee for qualified and responsible homes that can commit to a lifetime home or will return the horse to Second Stride if no longer able to keep the horse and can’t find an appropriate home.
