I have a 30 year old chestnut Standardbred. Have had him for 18 years and he's always been my beautiful boy. His buddy passed away in September, a beautiful bay Thoroughbred gelding. We got him six months after we got the other horse so they've been on mum's property for a really long time! Both were ex-trotters and I'm currently in the process of researching the Standardbred's history through his branding. A friend of a friend has something to do with the Standardbred association so looking forward to seeing what they find out.
