Mariana whas bought in mexico, she whas being raced by her owners. mexican races are not regulated by any asosiation, theres no such thing as doping and well horses get drugged, they have their tendons cut in some cases to block pein issues and so on. It is also tought that the horse must be skinny in order to run faster, the leaner it is the faster it will run...(dont know if this true, but i dont believe it.) She whas clearly underweight, had a whole in her hindquarter from previous injury, somehow she managed to get hit by a train. o.O Her last race ever, she whas at the starting gate, btu she spooks with something, the gates open, she rears and falls on her side. the jockey managed to escape, but mariana whas stuck inside, she got all of her legs cut. once she managed to get up, the jockey grabbed her, got on and raced her like that. even tough it whas pointless. the race had been lost. Next day we took her home. she whas in bad shape, legs swollen, huge cut on her hind left leg. we called a vet, because previous owner didnt whant to spend a penny on her. she had to sleep a whole night like that.

Now she will never be raced again. she is used as a trail horse, tough shes being trained western by some charro trainner. i cant really say if hes doing a good job trainning her. like most OTTB's , shes afraid of whips, and has a very hard mouth, is very stiff on the right side and so on.

when she arrived. most of the cuts where on her left side. so their hard to see, and most where on her hind legs.

Months after we bought her
