Interesting Fact - Darcy is an ex-racehorse who has done it all.  He has been a hunter, and excelled at 3 day eventing as part of the University of Michigan Equestrian Team.  He came to us more than 4 years ago after a tendon injury left him unable to continue his show career.  He is playful and loves water.  He is solid at the walk and trot, but does not canter due to his injury.  He needs a strong leader who will insist that he remain in his own space, or else he will try to play games with his horse leader during lessons.  He is happier being off lead with newly independent walk and trot riders.
