The Adventure to Freddy

In the spring of 2001 I decided that I wanted to buy a horse. My mom was ok with it, as long as I payed for the horse and the costs. At first I began looking on the Internet, but there wasn't really anything in my area or price range. SO I decided with the help of a friend, to look at the local race track. We started going to the races every week and went a few times during the morning work outs to see what was available. By the end of July I had found what I thought would be my first horse. But after having a vet check and him coming up lame. I moved on since there are a lot of horses at the track. I was heart broken after that, but knew I would find the right horse. about a month later We were are the track checking the horses out, my old instructor told me about a guy who had a big gelding for sale. Well this gelding was nice, and big. He was just what I had wanted. I rode him 2 days later after first seeing him, then arranged for the vet to come an check him. Well four days after I first saw him, he was safely at his new home. Here are 2 pictures of Freddy in his stall at the track.
