I don’t dream big, I dream realistically.

This is Orphie, a 7-year-old off-the-track thoroughbred who needs a new home. He was orphaned as a foal and brought up bottle-fed, and as a result has a great personality. He’s pretty, well put together, and has a nice eye. He looks like a bit of a handful, but could turn out quite nicely as a hunter

He seems a little feisty — but not out of control — in that video, which I like.

Since he obviously wasn’t successful at the track and his owner is looking for a caring family to give him a “new career,” he’d probably even be in my price range (when I have one).

Granted, my price range for buying and keeping my own horse right now is nil. And he’s in Georgia. And I really don’t know all that much about him. Or his owner.

He may not be some fancy $50,000 warmblood hunter prospect, but I’d say he definitely still qualifies as my dream horse.
