Messy Lu is a very pretty, 3 year old, 16 hand filly that came to us in partnership with Beyond the Wire in Maryland. This girl raced 8 times and never broke her maiden and her connections chose to let her explore a new career rather than pushing her. She is by Done Talking and out of a Sait Liam mare which means she has some cool horses in her pedigree: Broken Vow, Dixieland Band, Rahy.

Lu arrived a little over a week from her last race and looks very clean and very sound. She's due to have her intake evaluation with our vet shortly but we feel pretty confident she'll have no limitations put on her second career.

Lu has no vices and is very sweet and super curious. While her first impression might come off like she's a bit "looky," she really just wants to look at something till she understands it, and then she moves on. She doesn't look and spook, she looks to process, and we think she's actually going to mature into a very brave, intelligent mare.

Stay tuned for more updates once the vet gets a chance to do her intake evaluation. Timing worked out that we were able to take photos of her soon after arrival.
