Radical by name, radical by nature: Rads re-homing record.

Radical, a 7-year old gelding by Dansili out of Bold Empress (Diesis), was the first of the new intake to Stilemans.  He only arrived at the end of August, but he has already been re-homed, a record turn around for The Racehorse Sanctuary.  This was helped by both his equitable nature and the fact that he had already been hacked, before he came to us; essentially all the team had to do was make sure that his instincts to race were under control.

Here is a picture of him at Stilemans, ridden by Ruth.

Radical’s new home is in West Sussex in the care of his new keeper Karen, who is a Sanctuary supporter and helped us out by working for us during the move to Stilemans.  Karen fell in love with Rads at first sight, and after the usual rigorous checks of his new home, he was on his way.  Karen will go hacking with Rads and as they settle down together Karen plans to compete with him in both dressage and jumping.
