Hello Rachel: There is a lot you can learn from this list and there is a lot you can learn from the Internet in general. But you still need to experience the horses in person and up close to know what they are all about. The weather is nice now and I am trimming hooves - as many as my pool old back permits per day. And I am looking forward to riding. The girl who spent the summer a few years ago at Trishes farm will be arriving here on March 23 and will stay about ten days or so. Try to schedule a visit while she is here and she will be able to tell you what whe knows about the horses you are considering. Don't worry too much about the stock market; it will bounce back.
