Charm was purchased by Huntington Farms
as an untouched 3 year old directly from a
large, top thoroughbred breeder who
specializes in racing and performance
stock. She was handled and worked with
lightly until January of 2002, when she
entered into serious training.
While Charm has the look, presence and movement of a top hunter or dressage
horse ... her most distinguishing characteristic is her incredible strength and athleticism. Though
this mare is quiet enough to require a spur, she has stunning endurance ... as she almost never
tires. In addition, she can handle serious ride after serious ride without so much as wind puff,
indicating she possesses the soundness required of a seriously competitive sport horse.
Despite extreme athleticism and the sensitivity common to thoroughbred mares,
Charm has a good mind. Though she can be forward at times, she can also be extremely quiet and has
never been "hot" under saddle. She possesses rare intelligence, and her confident attitude becomes clear in her jumping, as she approaches and handles large jumps
boldly.
