Default Anybody want a gelding for free?

I'm not kidding here. Any of you trail rider type people who wanta gelding need to email me quick. One of my clients Maggi is giving away some racehorses, geldings, and she has three left out of 8 she started with.
Better speak fast, and you may be able to get one for free.

No you cannot. When horses are given away or donated, they are given away with the agreement that the horse can no longer race.

Its free. You'd have to pay the shipping. She has 3 that need homes.

Yeah, but then you'd have to pay board and all, etc.

I am going to have to keep bumping my thread on the "off topic". It is titled "looking for a horse" if you want any more info on my friend and what she is looking for. It can be a filly. Doesn't have to be a "mare". It can be two or three.

i think he was just being sarcastic cajun, deep down jerry is a good guy and i dont think hed wanna see any horse harmed. i still feel awful for taking my horse down and running him at fairmount this year. as soon as we got him off the trailer i said"sorry boy for bringing you to this shiathole." nothing wrong with bottom tracks but if you see some of the butcher jobs that go on down there and the shape some of em go to the track in youd be absolutely sick

I know he was being sarcastic, but my God, he picks the worst things to be sarcastic about, you know? To even joke about running there is ridiculous.
