Commentary: "River" was given to us for Christmas from our good friend Lin Ryder as a hunter pony, though we soon discovered, eventhough she has the breeding and conformation to be a fabulous hunter, she just didn't like it. She will pony lesson kids around on the flat and will stand looking her best in a halter arena all day long but she just isn't happy over fences. She'll comply but her heart just isn't in it. We also noticed that she was taken with the mares and foals in the pasture adjacent hers and with her sweet disposition and classic conformation, she'd make an ideal brood mare so that's where she is today! She shows in halter in breed shows mostly and is used in lessons from time to time but spends most of her days fat and happy in the broodmare pasture and it seems there's no place she'd rather be!
Notes: Christmas present from Lin Ryder (condition-free)
