Haliae RJ3

Higgins (Heraldik x For Pleasure) x Cliche RJ3 (Caracas x Renegade z) Born 4/9/23

Haliae has been bred and born at RJ3 sport horses for Jess Jasper.

Haliae is a water spirit, this name was chosen as we were experiencing significant flooding at the time of this breeding!

Haliae was born with some minor limb deviations. His near front is bowing out at the knee and turning in at the fetlock. He is also over at both knees. He was windswept behind left to right, but as he strengthened this came right within a few days.

Early intervention at a young age can see huge improvement in minor deviations.

Haliae has had a lateral extension taped on (he’s too young for it to be safely glued) this will support his knee and encourage his fetlock to come back out.

With him being over at the knee, if he exercises to much he gets very unsteady and shaky. He was kept stabled and the mare taken out to graze while he exercises for 20-30mins twice daily while he gets stronger.

With the early intervention and close monitoring, he has grown into a lovely individual with a trusting nature that will ensure, with caring management, he becomes the best he can.
