HERITAGE HALL, 8 year old Irish- bred stakes winner needs a home with pasture and a gentle trail-riding lifestyle. He is a very personable horse who loves attention and taking trail rides with a light, experienced rider. Due to his hard years of racing his back cannot take serious dressage work or jumping. This wonderful horse was rescued from slaughter buyers two years ago by Anita Offerman, which made national news because of his successful racing career.  Read her story below,  and if you would be interested in finding out more about adopting Heritage Hall you may contact Anita at 818-481-2180 or anita@nlstudio.com  

"Two years ago Heritage Hall ended up in the Bakersfield livestock auction in CA. He was completely run down, skinny and sick. You couldnąt tell he had a racing career other than his racing shoes. When we purchased him for $450 dollars, and then started looking at his paperwork it became clear that this stakes winner had a brilliant start in life. We wondered how did he ended up in a slaughter sale at the age of 6?

By Fairy King out of Lucky Song, HERITAGE HALL was foaled in Ireland and is a former $300,000 sales yearling. He was later sold for racing in the US, made 25 starts and has earnings of over $100,000. In his early racing career he injured his back, and still performed for many more races."

HAPPY ENDING!!!
Good news, in fact fantastic news. Mister Cooper found the best home I could have dreamed off. He will live in a beautiful place in the San Diego area. They found Cooper trough your website, and in the last few months I had some very nice people write to me.
I don’t even know how to thank you for using your website. It just attracted the right kind of people, and it is wonderful to know that so many people want to take care of these beautiful ex-race horses.
