Khurd’s story
Khurd ran in local Naadam races as a youngster. He is quick and keen, and with time he could become one of our expedition horses. A rescue application is being reviewed.
A fast chestnut gelding with racing blood, retired early and headed for slaughter. Our rescue team met Khurd in person, checked teeth, hooves and temperament, and agreed a price with the seller.
Mongolian horses are small, tough and astonishingly intelligent. Every autumn, thousands are sold for meat when families need cash before winter. Each one we can buy back becomes part of our school — and a reason for travellers to come and ride.
