Need Help to Retire 14yo Mighty Wind

Postby MaryAinMI » Tue Apr 14, 2009 4:25 pm

The owner/trainer of Mighty Wind, a 14 year old one-eyed gelding at Beulah who has been racing since age 5, is ready to retire this horse.

CANTER of Michigan has offered to take in Mighty Wind, and the owner/trainer was also offered $500 to sell Mighty Wind. He has turned down both offers and is listing Mighty Wind for sale to the public for $1,500/OBO.

CANTER of Ohio is taking in donations for the purchase of Mighty Wind. The donation thread is here: http://forums.delphiforums.com/alexbrow ... sg=35922.1

CANTER of Michigan is still willing to take care of Mighty Wind for as long as it takes to find him a permanent spot. They will have a trailer at Beulah THIS FRIDAY (4/17) to pick up a couple of horses. We are all hoping enough will have been raised by Friday - even if not $1,500 - that the owner/trainer will agree to sell Mighty Wind, and CANTER of Michigan will be able to load Mighty Wind as well!!

THANKS for any donation amount, NO MATTER HOW SMALL. It all adds up!!
