As an almost 5 year old, Retorte is maturing very nicely. We are beginning ground work and will start him under saddle either late summer or in the fall after the endurance season is finished. He has an unflappable disposition and very nice, smooth gaits, promising to be very nice under saddle. Once he's going under saddle, he will get to begin his breeding career, as well. Mecca El Bedu was specifically bought for him and we're excited to see what they will produce.
