About Happy Hackers

A genuine happy hacker should be safe in traffic, easy to catch, straightforward to load and manageable both in company and alone. Ask the vendor directly about each of these before committing to a viewing. Many excellent leisure horses are older animals stepping down from competition. A well-cared-for horse in its late teens can give many more years of enjoyable riding than a young, unproven one and is often considerably better value.
