Rio, as we call him, is a 18 year old gelding who was found at the horse auction by one of our volunteers. He was brought by a local trader and we intervened before he could end up in a kill pen. The story that came with him is he was owned by an older gentleman who can no longer care for him. He supposedly used him for cattle work and roped off from him, which is not verifiable.
Since arriving at Remember Me, Rio has been ridden Western and English. He has completed our trail and obstacle courses and has even popped over a few small jumps. Even so, we still do not recommend him for beginners or children because we do not have any information between when he stopped racing and when we acquired him.
