Open the Books is a 6 year old, 16.2 hand, bay gelding who came to us in partnership with Beyond the Wire in Maryland. He is a beautiful, sweet gelding by Uncle Lino and out of a Swear by Dixie mare. This means he has some great names like Indian Charlie, Dixieland Band and Fappiano in his pedigree.

Open the Books raced 8 times with his last race in May of this year. He retired with a very straightforward cracked shin, a very common injury at the track and one with an excellent prognosis! He has finished his rehab and is currently turned out with a group of geldings.

Open the Books has a terrific prognosis for any career and is ready to come back to work! He is available now to someone who is willing to restart him themselves.
