Army Cadet was adopted in July of 2025 by Dolly in PA. Dolly has adopted from ATR before and is very excited to bring Army home as her next partner to bring along in hunters and dressage. He's also staying close to home as he'll be living just down the road from ATR!

Original post:

Army Cadet is a 4 year old, bay gelding that came to us in partnership with Beyond the Wire in Maryland. He raced 16 times fairly consistently with his last recorded workout being in mid-January. He is by Army Mule and out of a Midnight Lute mare and was born in Canada!

Army is a very sweet, quiet-minded gelding with no vices. He's currently turned out with mares and geldings both. While initially spending some time in rehab, he was cleared to return to turnout in April and returned to work recently this summer.

He's had a few rides now and is very straightforward if a bit pokey! He's ready to be considered by someone wanting a quiet-minded Thoroughbred to bring along. He's a really good boy.

Our vet expects him to have a terrific future ahead with little or no long-term limitations. On his intake exam in February he was sore and she found stress to his third carpal bone (though no fracture), and a very small, unexciting chip that's likely old and unrelated. Rads are available to approved adopters for consideration.
