horses by Hennessy

Postby feartinybubbles » Fri Sep 22, 2006 4:35 pm

Curious about horses by the stallion Hennessy

I train OTTB for H/J and eventing. Familiar with a lot of the lines as far as some being better known lines for say jumping or known for weak conformation or behavior problems but have not had many from Hennessy. I have had 1 storm cat who had a equally spunky temperament.

I have a chestnut gelding who is quite talented but Hmmmm very temperamental and was curious how many of you might have been around his kids??

Thanks in advance.

I've been around quite a few Hennessy foals, yearlings, and racehorses. They tend to be athletic, game, fast, and very difficult to work with. They're definitely "ask" not "tell" horses. Interestingly, the Johannesburgs I've worked with have been much the same!
