A champion racehorse is in need of a new home after retirement. <\/p>\n
Sophie, previously called Sophie\u2019s Illusion<\/a>, is a red thoroughbred mare who had to retire after injuries to her left hock and right fetlock. However, the 11-year-old was investigated by MSPCA\u2019s vet \u201cand she is quite sound and comfortable,\u201d the nonprofit wrote. <\/p>\n \u201cSophie was originally adopted out after her racing career ended as a light walk\/trot horse, but based on her age and the bony changes in her legs, we are recommending her for a companion-only home,\u201d MSPCA wrote. \u201cShe is simply stunning to look at out in a pasture!\u201d <\/p>\n During her time as a racehorse<\/a>, she competed 12 times. Two of those times she came in first place and she came in second twice. A majority of the races were in 2018. <\/p>\n MSPCA describes Sophie as affectionate and patient. <\/p>\n Adoption fees<\/a> are $250.
