Adoption Overview $850

My Carrington

3 year old thoroughbred gelding bred in KY
Bolt D' Oro (Medaglia D' Oro) out of Mama Knows Best by Sky Mesa
Eligible for the Retired Racehorse Project's
THOROUGHBRED MAKEOVER COMPETITION!

16.1 plus hands. He last raced on 6/22/25 and retired with a right front splint bone fracture and suspensory injury. Due to the nature of the splint fracture, the bone may not fully heal. It should not bother him but may limit him to mid level use. He does have arthritis in the fetlock and a chip outside the joint. He may benefit from joint injections.

He was castrated on 3/19/26.

Carrington is a gorgeous, dark bay gelding with a kind personality. He is well behaved when around his handlers and is walking nicely on a lead rope. He was well behaved for the vet and farrier and stands nicely for grooming and bathing. 

Though he was recently castrated, he is calm and more laid back and should settle in even more now that he is a gelding. A classy horse.

He only has one race under his belt and earned $9200. He should be a reliable partner in his next endeavor. 

 A PPE is highly recommended for sport use.
