• Thoroughbred
• Gelding
• 11 years
• 16.2 hands

• Racing Name; Lucarnip
• Stable name; Oakey
• Location; Buckingham, Milton Keynes

Oakey finished racing in May 2022. He has been in three homes since leaving racing, and very sadly, due to extreme change in life circumstances we need to find him a new home. 

Oakey is an absolute gentleman to have around the yard. He is good to turnout, handle, shoe, clip, travel etc. He is a very kind horse and is the quiet one in the field. He ‘goes with the flow’ of the yard and is never demanding. 

Oakey needs time. He needs more development of his posture and building of his topline, but he is a brilliant horse who will give someone so much fun and joy. 

Oakey LOVES to jump. He is bold, keen and will keep on coming. He is not suitable for someone who wants to find their confidence jumping as he takes you in and jumps! He is would be a brilliant eventer/SJ/team chaser. He is good on the flat, he is just weak and needs developing, but he understands the basics of working into an outline. He is great to hack, alone or in company and is one where you can not ride him for days and hop straight on. 

In his previous home he has done a days hunting and was well behaved and mannerly. 

A loving, stable, kind home, who understands thoroughbreds is what we are looking for for Oakey.
