Rusten Racing & Retraining Stables

We are exited to present this charismatic look at me gelding.

Utah is an unregistered paint who is a flashy 7-year-old gelding standing approximately 15hh. With his striking blue eyes, big white face and eye-catching markings, he’s the sort of horse that gets noticed wherever he goes.

Utah has been exposed to a variety of environments including barrel racing events, team penning weekends and clinics, and continues to gain confidence with every outing. He is an athletic horse with plenty of potential and a willingness to learn, making him suitable for someone looking for a horse they can continue to develop in their chosen discipline. He is forward moving and can be a little unsure in new situations, so would be best suited to a confident rider who can provide reassurance and continue building his confidence. Utah is not nasty, just sensitive and still learning to trust his rider.
A lovely horse with a kind nature, plenty of ability and a bright future ahead of him. Only available as his current owner is looking to focus on other commitments
Plenty of video available
Located at Parkes

Clerk of the course- how many people really know what these brave talented horse people do?
They lead your horses onto the track, around to the barriers, help adjust gear all for no thanks from trainers, drivers, jockeys because it’s expected. They are necessary for race meetings to go ahead not because it’s a requirement but because they save lives. They save the horse that’s got loose so it doesn’t cause further falls and injuries to the other horses, drivers, jockey’s. In this moment they are invaluable and irreplaceable.
This is Laura and the amazing off the track thoroughbred Necessary Evil - aka Lonnie at 19 years of age intercepting a loose horse after a fall at the Parkes Harness racing meeting last night 🏆🏆proud of you Laura Rusten
