Meet Rita – A Sweet, Easygoing Mare Ready for Her Next Adventure
Rita is a lovely, small-built mare with a laid-back personality and a kind heart. She’s the type of partner who’s happy to go wherever the day takes her — whether it’s a quiet ride around the ring or a new experience on the trail. Her calm, go-with-the-flow nature makes her a great match for a junior or novice rider looking to bring along a reliable and friendly companion.
Rita leads well with a simple cotton rope, often walking with her pasture mates without any fuss. She is a joy to handle on the ground and settles right into her daily routine.
She enjoys grooming and stands quietly in the grooming stalls. Bath time is no problem either — she’s happy to soak up the attention and affection from her people.
In the barn, Rita is quiet, curious, and enjoys socializing — often popping her head out for scratches and a friendly hello. She’s easy to manage and fits in well with the flow of daily care.
Rita wears standard front shoes and has proven to be low-maintenance in her overall care needs. She retired sound from racing and has no known injuries. However, she is built slightly straight behind and over at the knee, so we believe she would thrive best in a moderate-level second career — such as pleasure riding, low-level dressage, or light trail work.
Under saddle, Rita is uncomplicated and steady. She naturally moves long and low and is responsive to her rider. Always well-behaved and consistent, she gives her rider confidence with her quiet and gentle presence.
If you’re seeking a kind, uncomplicated mare who’s happy to join you on life’s next chapter, Rita may be the perfect match.
