Mary
Foaled 1986 (approx.)
15hh Bay Thoroughbred Mare

Mary is a dainty Thoroughbred mare once owned by the prior owner of Prophet.   Mary has arthritis, and what appears to be a "popped" knee on the right, but it doesn't really seem to slow her down much.  She has only been with us for a short time, but settled in IMMEDIATELY.  She initially hooked up with Inch (her stablemate).  Inch, Mitey and Mary were all watched over by Jet (by far the most crippled horse on my lot, but the only gelding with THREE mares of his own.  What a guy!)  Mary has good flesh and a decent hair coat.  

After the loss of Jet, Mary became inextricably attached to Debbie, who had lost Orion. The two girls hang with Inch and Mitey, and spend every minute together - true gal-pals!

 
  Here's Mary in 2008. Pretty face, no? And yes, that is her friend Debbie.  The two are inseparable, actually share a double wide stall. I call them the Snippett Sisters, as they each have very very similiar markings on their faces.  One bay TB, one chestnut QH, yet fast friends ....  
  Mary, Inch and Debbie have breakfast together..... a daily appointment!  
 

Dainty Mary is now sponsored by her former owner, Sarah Bancroft.  Thank you Sarah, for standing by your old friend!  Please contact Casey if you'd like to sponsor any of the other unsponsored Golden Carrot horses.
