16.2 hands. He last raced on 5/14/25 and retired with a left front medial splint head fracture that was surgically repaired.
J has healed well from his surgery and is working well at the walk and trot in the arena and on leisurely farm rides. He is polite at the mounting block and is a straightforward ride who listens well and has big swinging gaits. With light work through the winter, J should be ready for light athletics in the spring. His long-term prognosis includes flatwork and jumping if care is taken with his rehab riding. Someone will be very lucky to work with this intelligent, willing youngster.
J enjoys daily turnout with two other gentle young geldings. He can be mildly bossy but should not be turned out with rough companions.
J stands well for the farrier and vet. He has no known vices. He appreciates a blanket in temperatures low thirties and under.
