Christie's Glory (Click here for Past Performances)
ADOPTED!!!!!!!!!
"Christie's Glory" is a dark bay almost blood bay gelding and simply stunning. He is by Hunter's Glory (Jade Hunter) and was bred and owned
by Larry Zimmerman who donated him to Neigh Savers and pledged to pay all of his expenses until we found him a home. As luck would have it, a star
was shining over Mr. Zimmerman and his kindness and thus Christo was adopted in a matter of two weeks or almost as quickly as he came into the program! Why
is it our un-sponsored horses are never that lucky?
Christo raced a total of 24 times primarly at Golden Gate Fields. In August 2010 he bowed a tendon and had been off ever since. Mr. Zimmerman is
an elderly gentleman and is out of the horse business now. He lovingly tended to his boy and often drove from his home in the east bay to Stockton just
to feed Christo some carrots. Christo could easily have gone back into racing but luckily has found a forever home with Lynnae C. of Willits, CA. Lynnae
is so excited to have found a special equine friend to share her life with.
Update: January 2012
Lynnae has received Christie's Glory and writes: "I want to thank Larry and Neigh Savers for allowing me to have my sweetest dearest dream come true. I love my Christo!! He has new brushes, halter, bridle, blanket, clean water, grass hay and rice pellets to enjoy. He has horses around him to enjoy and even two cows and some ducks. He has a new vet and farrier and a new mommy that just cant get enough of him. Thank you soooo much!"
