Watch My Smoke (aka “Smokie”) raced until a couple days before his 12th birthday. A famous winner in Louisiana, Smokie earned over $539,000! He is enjoying a well-earned longer term vacation here. We expect to begin his retraining and preparation for a new career in early 2022. Smokie is a lovely mover and retired sound, with clean legs. He will require a special person to appreciate his complex (yet endearing) personality — and to give him the extra time he needs to learn how to go slow.
Smokie is currently being retrained by one of LOPE’s favorite horsemen, Gary Bailey of Bail-E Horsemanship and Colt Starting Services. Smokie is learning all about the ranch lifestyle — including how to handle a rope, supervise cattle (from afar at the moment) and look gorgeous in western tack.
