If you're on a quest for a perfect partner, look no further than this sweet and handsome guy! Que is a barn favorite with his kind nature and loving personality and he retired from racing sound with no known injuries!

Que is easy to lead, stands quietly in the wash stall and enjoys warm bubble baths. He enjoys grooming, but watch your backside ... he’s been known to nibble! He’s not aggressive, but he can catch you off guard if you're not expecting it. He stands well for the farrier and is currently wearing front steel shoes.

He's currently turned-out with another gelding. He's a friendly pasturemate and likes to play.

Under saddle, Que is currently working at the walk, trot and canter and over poles. He's the perfect balance of go and whoa. He has well-balanced gaits and a good foundation. He's soft in the bridle and likes a steady light feel. Que has been a good pupil and has been very willing to try new things.

Que can go in any direction. We feel he would be an excellent hunter/jumper partner.  He’s suitable for an intermediate rider with a trainer and experience bringing along a young horse.

Constant Quest came to New Vocations via NYTHA's Take The Lead program. We're so grateful for their continued support!

ADOPTION FEE POLICY

New Vocations’ adoption fees are intentionally set lower than the cost of buying most Thoroughbreds or Standardbreds through a private seller. In today’s market, it’s not unusual for horses coming right off the track to be listed for sale at a price between $2,000 and $5,000. At New Vocations, we set a fee that will ultimately help each horse find a home quickly. The program’s facilities are always at full capacity, which means we cannot take in an additional horse until one is adopted. Adopters should be encouraged to know that by adopting a horse through New Vocations, they are actually helping two horses transition to careers outside of racing.

In general, our fees are set at $500, $1,000 or $2,500:  

• $2,500: This range is for horses that we consider to be the cream of the crop or “unicorn” horses. They are horses that have few or no limitations and great conformation, movement and size.
• $1,000: This range is for horses that are suitable for a competitive career up to a certain level (for example, cleared for 2’6” but not necessarily 3’). They may have been fully rehabbed from an injury but have been cleared by our veterinarians for most disciplines. 
• $500: This range is for horses that are limited to a flat, trail or companion-type home. These horses are healthy and have been fully rehabbed and evaluated by a vet.

Additionally, adopters get great value for their money: The majority of the horses have been in the program for a minimum of 60 days. During that time, horses are rehabilitated (if needed), socialized with other horses, fully evaluated, and in work with a professional trainer. New Vocations fully discloses each horse’s history and provides all available medical records, many of which include X-ray and ultrasounds.

While adoption fees are low, it should be noted that costs associated with ongoing care and additional training for each horse after adoption can be high. New Vocations hopes that by helping an adopter save money upfront, he or she will have more funds available to cover the continuing costs of properly caring for a horse.
