SHOW NAME: Buckingham Palace
BARN NAME: Bucky
AGE: 10 Years
GENDER: Gelding
COLOR: Dark Bay
BREED: Thoroughbred
HEIGHT: 16 Hands
PERSONALITY: Bucky is a big oaf in the barn. He is almost always doing goofy things in the barn, and always knows how to make Hayley laugh. Once in the show ring, Bucky can still be an oaf but he seems to always put on his game face.
HISTORY: Bucky was bred, born and raised on a thoroughbred racing farm. His sire was a champion on the race track, and his dam was no slouch either. However, as they began to break the young colt, it was determined he had no talent on the race track. Jumping on the other hand, he loved to jump. So, he was sold and trained to jump. Hayley was interested in pursuing a serious jumper, and he really caught her attention.
DISCIPLINE: Jumping, & dressage (training)

SHOW NAME: Northern Spy
BARN NAME: Spy
AGE: 10 Years
GENDER: Gelding
COLOR: Bay
BREED: Thoroughbred
HEIGHT: 16.1 Hands
PERSONALITY: In the barn, Spy can be a very territorial horse. He tries to bring people close to him, but watch out. He has no problem nipping at anyone who gets too close. He will also kick at anyone who enters his stall. The only person he does not try to nip or kick is Hayley.
HISTORY: Hayley's parents owned both Spy's sire and dam. Once Hayley was old enough to ride competitively, Spy became her main ride. They went on to breeze through the junior levels of riding. However, a virus struck and caused Spy to get very sick. Hayley spent hours and hours by his side, nursing him back to health. Thus, they gained an inseparable bond. They have been working him back into health, and there was no way she could leave him behind when she left Ireland.
DISCIPLINE: Jumping and Dressage
