Just Another One- 6yr 16.1 h imported Irish gelding steeplechaser sired by Vocalised out of a Galileo mare https://www.pedigreequery.com/just+another+one This spectacular stamp of a TB was imported in 2023. He ran a few times over fences in 2023 and sustained a very tiny bow which is so minor some might not see it but is why there is a gap in his record. I asked his trainer and she said it just realistically can take at least a year if not longer due to their " short spring/fall seasons" in steeplechase for them to return since they don't run on the same schedule as flat horses. While he did return to racing he truly wasn't the caliber of horse he needed to be and his owners/trainer are very realistic in retiring them while they can excel in another career. I bought him in the fall of 2025 and he was immediately sold to an event home. He has been lightly worked since arriving there but was having some issues being attached to a mare on a small farm situation (3 horses). 


I think there are some horses that you sit on and just can't stop grinning. I can tell you my rider doesn't really get excited about much but he said this one might top his all time list of horses he has sat on here so far and that is pretty meaningful. It's tough to describe this horse but overall I would just say he is elastic and everything bends in a way to make you think holy heck this thing is insanely athletic. We talk about a "5th" leg that makes horses so coveted out eventing/jumping/etc and he absolutely has it. The way he can use himself and just get himself wrapped around a jump I think they either have or they don't. His canter is quite special. The trot isn't bad either. I don't think it is flashy in the way everyone will like but the way the hind legs work and how he uses his shoulder already without really having much understanding lets me know all the pieces are there. He can sit and compact and then open up all with the touch if a finger.

I think chasers can get a bad rap for being too flat or not rideable but that has never been my experience and absolutely is not the case with this one. He has had two rides and he jumps around our course of very spooky fillers like he has been doing it forever. The balance, rhythm and way he thinks impresses me. There are horses that just find the jumps on their own and have the canter to make it easy for you to find the jumps. He is so quiet and just lets you really ride him which I mean ride two post track is just something special. 

I can pretty much guarantee he is going to be the most kick ass xc machine and we cannot wait to try that out. Everything about this horse makes us giddy. I sort of want to keep him around because horses like this are educators. I don't get a lot like this that truly let my riders experience something that can just go out and do the job. We ride so many greenies and while he may be green in some ways in other ways he is anything but green. Not to mention, the mileage that chasers have is always extensive. 

Not all of these types will hunt but I suspect this one will. He has a quiet brain. He has impeccable manners. He is the kindest easiest type. He is everything I would want in a horse for myself 🙂
