Thoroughbred Gelding for Sale in Clarksburg, MD

Proudly offering... 16.2hh Tom's Music (ON) TB, DK B/, G, FOALED MAY 5, 2015 ( MIDNIGHT LUTE - SIWA, BY ALYDEED) Tom "Tom's Music" is a 2015 dark bay thoroughbred gelding who has been brought along by a junior rider. He has been lightly schooled and is a consistent horse with a few days off in between rides. He is a kind horse with lots of scope and an honest jump. Tom will jump anything in front of him and has jumped leading and following out hunting and schooling cross-country. He has hunted weekly with the New Market-Middletown Valley Hounds and has capped with Howard County-Iron Bridge Hounds and taken to it like a professional. Tom also has experience at Loch Moy's Cross-Derby, and Swan Lake Shows. Hounds, water crossings, ditches and miscellaneous trees do not phase this horse. Horses that crowd or pass also do not phase this horse. He also brings home all four shoes after every hunt and is very sure footed. He is light in the hand and easily can be hunted in a simple snaffle bridle. On the flat, he loves to stretch and release to warm up in his rides. He has lead changes both left and right. This horse could easily go in any direction but has primarily been fox hunted by his current owner. Tom is UTD on dental records, and vaccines and is ready to find his forever home.

About Clarksburg, MD

Clarksburg is named for trader John Clarke, and was established at the intersection of the main road between Georgetown and Frederick and an old Seneca trail. One of its earliest white inhabitants was a man named Michael Ashford Dowden, who in 1752 received a patent for 40 acres (160,000 m 2) from the colonial government called "Hammer Hill", and two years later permission to build an inn. The inn itself is a footnote in history, hosting the army of General Edward Braddock during the French and Indian War, serving as a meeting place for local Sons of Liberty in the years before the American Revolution, and possibly serving dinner to President Andrew Jackson on his way to his inauguration. Jamie, grandson of the trader, built a general store in the area around 1770, and over the next thirty years enough people moved to the area that Clark was appointed postmaster for the community. By 1875, Clarksburg was a major town in the northern part of the county, but the construction of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad undermined its economy.
