Lady was adopted in September of 2025 by Tammy who does both reining and jumping (not necessarily with the same horse!). Tammy has a great operation and quite a few riding students and is looking forward to bringing Lady along on the flat and expects she'll be tremendously spoiled and loved by students as well. We can't wait to hear how she grows in her program!

Original post:

is Nearly a Lady is a 4 year old, 15.3 hand, bay filly that came to us in partnership with Beyond the Wire in Maryland. Her race trainer was very fond of her and said she is a very affectionate mare that is very spoiled and enjoys peppermints, carrots, and even sweet potatoes!

Lady is by Algorithms and out of a Flatter mare. She raced 10 times and retired in May with a sesamoid fracture that was reviewed by the wonderful surgeon Patty Hogan who thought she'll have a good prognosis for a second career.

She's settling into her routine here at After the Races but has shown no vices, is very personable, and we think will be an easy one to fall in love with. Lady has completed her rehab and is on full turnout with a group of mares. We have not yet ridden her but she is available to someone comfortable with restarting her themself.
