AVAILABLE FOR SALE

Maggie is a 16.2hh, 2010, Thoroughbred mare available for sale. Smooth gaits and decent step, Maggie is a comfortable medium ride between woah and go. Takes the leg well and is generally safe with no buck, bolt, or rear. She always jumps & has a started counter canter and lead change making her a candidate to be a successful H/J partner.

Maggie would benefit from some further physical reconditioning. She has done well at the horse shows with good results- she's had previous experience in the jumper ring and has more recently been tackling the hunters with her novice JR owner. However, a combination of unclear signals and inconsistent program has left this mare wanting for clarity and consistency. Since coming to our program, she has begun to soften and show her true personality to be a willing, conscientious mare who has decent buttons and some solid general rideability and handle that denotes some quality training underneath her slightly confused demeanour.

She would make a super mount for a JR or AA rider who can give simple, confident instruction. She is not generally spooky or reactive and her general go to "move" is to stop moving. Therefore, not an inherently dangerous problem to deal with and is generally easy to convince her to get her feet moving again without argument. She could also be envisioned as a solid horse for a pro (or an intermediate rider) to invest some time in for a future useable lesson/partboard horse with some more corrective riding to clarify her expectations (which she'll be learning with us, as long as we have her!).

*UPDATE November 2025* She has been in our program for 30 days now, and is starting to show qualities of a decent school horse. Could now be envisioned as a nice addition for a WTC + 2ft program with the occasional advanced rider/pro tune.

She is sound, sane, and easy to have in the barn. Keeps her weight well without anything special diet wise and currently wears a set of front shoes. Maggie is a mild cribber which is controlled with a collar. She currently lives inside & on rotational turnout like many of our sale horses, but has previously done well living in a herd.

An affordable mount, that can easily be a low level H/J show partner. Enjoys hacking out, stands to be groomed/worked on, and is a pleasant horse to work with every day. Price may increase with more training as we uncover more of what this mare can do, but owners are looking to move into something more suitable for their daughter's riding.

Located in Uxbridge, ON.
