Turnip needs little introduction. She has been a much loved and steadfast partner for us since she was born. She completed the IJF as a 4yo and made it to the top 10 at the Young Jumper Finals in Kentucky as a 5yo. She had competed in her first mini prix by 6 and made it all the way to the Grand Prix level racking up ribbons along the way. Her diminutive size, love for speed and desire to win made her a tough competitor in the show ring. She is still the top money winning horse this farm has ever produced. She was a true competitor, never failed to show up and give 115% and was one of the easiest horses to train for her whole career. She sustained a suspensory injury and after rehab the decision was made to retire her and add her to the broodmare band. She is out of our flagship mare Nothing Ventured and by our beloved Mr. Wizard. She is the first Mr. Wizard mare that we have the pleasure of adding to the broodmare band and we expect her to excel in her new career as she excelled in her old one. Turnip is in foal to the great Flexible for 2020. We are expecting something small and firey!
