Hi Una,
Do you know why they haven't ridden these horses in so long?

Dallas County Sheriff's Department is selling four retired horses. They will be offered for sale at a Dallas County online auction that will be advertised July 13-27:
Golden Bay, a thoroughbred described as calm, broken for riding and trained for the sheriff's mounted unit.
TJS Lil Playboy, a quarter horse that has not been ridden for 10 years but was used in the mounted unit.
Bartender, a quarter horse that hasn't been ridden in 10 years but was used at one point for rounding up loose livestock.
Boceiphus, a quarter horse that hasn't been ridden in seven years but was used in the mounted unit and for rounding up livestock. Has arthritis.
This is all the information I have. If interested, search the web for more. (I just did that and found nothing but this same info.)
