Quiet, Kind OTTB

Justin Timberprawn

DOB 26-Aug-2017

Approx 16h Bay Gelding.

Prawn has recently retired from racing. He was brought along patiently and gently, having not had his first trial until 01/07/2024 and his first racing start until 04/01/2025. A racehorse given so much time to grow and develop with the added bonus of low miles is a a rarity.

A stable favourite for both his quiet nature and his pony like personality, Prawn will be missed at the stable! Track-work riders always described him as being reliable and quiet, one for any newcomers to have a spin on. However, Prawn can be a little heavy in the hand but this had improved with some exercises both in and out of the saddle, and would only continue to do so with dressage and pole-work in his post racing life. On the ground he is the perfect horse to train or assess new staff on handling horses due to his kind, easy-going and quiet temperament, with his only vice being that he will try and steal other horses feeds as he passes if you do not watch him!

Prawn is easy to catch, shoe, float, handle, and rug in every way. He has never shown any signs of concern when leaving or being left, and can be left in the ties or his box with friends about.

We see a great potential for Prawn to be a stellar Pony Club, Adult Riders, Trail/Pleasure horse, or even working out on a farm with cattle.

He is a bit of a water baby and loves to paw in water so this may even suggest he will make a very neat low level event horse!

Prawn has only just left the track and is now spelling with his owner in Bayles and can be viewed upon arrangement. He has not yet undergone any retraining, but upon the completion of his spell any retraining he receives will only see his value increase.
