ABOUT: El Bombaso is a Canadian-bred Thoroughbred who came to us in 2020, and from the very beginning, he was an absolute pleasure to have around. As a three-year-old, he was quiet, willing, and incredibly easy to work with. With his cute movement, good jump, and wonderful demeanor, he seemed to be the total package.

El Bombaso was adopted and was doing very well in his new home when he unfortunately developed an abscess in his right front foot that became infected. The injury required significant time off to allow his foot to heal and regrow, so he eventually returned to us.

He was later adopted again as a dressage prospect, but his adopter ultimately felt that he was better suited to a different discipline, and El Bombaso came back to us once more.

Unfortunately, without a trainer currently working with him, El Bombaso has spent quite a bit of time simply enjoying life in the herd. While he certainly doesn't complain about that lifestyle, we think he is far too nice of a horse to be sitting in a field without a job.

With his quiet nature, good movement, and natural jump, we think El Bombaso could make a lovely hunter prospect for the right person. We would love to see him get the opportunity to develop his potential.
