Goodbye Turf

MD Turfairan (“Turf”) left for a new home yesterday. Turf was Jessie Heinrick’s gift to me, in return for my gifting her Wadd Al Arab. I regret that Turf did not have any opportunities at stud in my ownership. He would have nicked especially well with the *Nufoud mares. Despite his short height, he has quality, lots of style, in addition to the old desert type. His new owner will train him under saddle, and will be looking for mares for him.

He is not at his best in the video below, likely because his teeth need floating. Video by Lyman Doyle last week.
