Besides being an absolutely lovely mare, Mystic
Illahee is quite the traveler with an out of the ordinary story. She is
from the Northwest, thus her name Mystic Illahee. Illahee is a Native
American word, from the Chinook Tribe, that means land, earth, country, place of
rest. There are several beautiful parks and preserves in the Northwest
that have Illahee in their name.
Mystic Illahee only raced three times before ending
up at a local auction frequented by kill buyers. The Exceller Fund was
able to purchase her and save her from a grizzly fate. She was fostered
and eventually adopted. Unfortunately, her adopter ended up being
involved in a "scam" and Mystic was illegally sold to a lady in Wyoming as a
broodmare. Luckily, The Exceller Fund was able to track her down and once
again take possession of her.
She now resides at the Circle E Ranch in
Oklahoma that cares for numerous Exceller Fund horses. While she is
turned out with a small herd of horses, she can usually be found
with her best friends, Continuation and Winds of Summer.
Mystic Illahee is 16 hands, sound and
gorgeous. While she is fat and happy just hanging out with her
friends, she is a young mare that has an enormous amount of
potential perhaps even as a performance horse. But more important, she needs a permanent forever home that
will give her the attention she craves.
