Owned and raced by Scott and Tess Neaves, who wanted a good home for Rabbit, when he retired and I was very lucky to be able to give him that home , thankyou for trusting me to look after this excellent example of his Breed, he is everything you said he was and more. after just a few rides you would think he had been ridden all his life, hope you like the photo's


When he was racing

Now fast forward


He was bitten by my Thoroughbred and kicked by one of Tess and Scotts broodmares, you guessed on the forehead

A Ridden one at Spring Mountain


Thankyou to James for sending me his racing photo, so good to keep, where he was and now his new life as a ridden Standardbred
