More about career/placement options:
Few horses have demonstrated as much heart as this handsome fellow. Ezra was sadly seized by the NM Livestock Board due to severe neglect and starvation.
With his strong will and a healthy consistent diet, Ezra has almost reached an ideal weight and has begun ground training to build back his muscles and weak topline. He has considerable stiffness in his legs so until that improves, our trainers will not yet assess his skills under saddle. His lip is tattooed, identifying him as having started at least one race, but it has faded and is no longer readable.
