Selway
Bay Gelding;
Foaled 2002
Horse Chestnut -
Rejoyced, by Relaunch
This 15.3 hand stocky bay wound up in New
York with no papers and no place to go but slaughter. A person who
works hard to privately place Thoroughbreds looked up his tattoo and
suggested we find a way to contact his breeder. The Exceller Fund
contacted the Fans of Barbaro who made the connection to a very
grateful breeder who sent funds so The Exceller Fund could acquire this
horse and send him to a temporary foster home. He will be evaluated for
suitability while we determine the best location for him to go to find
an adoptive home. He is reported to be sound on a very old small bow
which is now tight.
UPDATE: July 2007 - Selway is being fostered in Mexico, New
York. His foster reports that Selway is calm under saddle and appears
to be sound. He does not have a lot of training, so he is the perfect
blank slate for someone to create their Dream Horse!
UPDATE: November 2010 Selway is currently in Bagdad, Kentucky. He is doing well and looks as handsome as ever! We are hoping to get him evaluated as we are not sure of his soundness level and adoption potential at this point in time.
