Paint Mare for Sale in Hoopeston, IL
Sage is from Leo lineage - her registered name is "Sliding Bar
Leo". She is a registered APHA tobiano paint mare. Her coloring is
a bit unusual, as she is mainly gray and darkens up considerably in the
winter months. She is a bit of a loner, but an easy keeper, does well with
the farrier, and enjoys apples and carrots. She has great conformation
and really sweet trot. She has not been ridden for while, but should
be able to settle right back into routine. We are letting our paints go
because we can't give them as much attention as they deserve. We hate
to let them go, but they are just too expensive to keep when we aren't
riding them like we should. Contact us to arrange seeing her in person.

About Hoopeston, IL
Hoopeston was laid out in 1871. It was named for Thomas Hoopes, one of the men who offered land for the crossing of two railroads: the Lafayette, Bloomington and Western Railroad and the Chicago, Danville and Vincennes Railroad. The two railroads separated the town into four sections. The latter railroad still exists and is now operated jointly by CSX Transportation and Union Pacific Railroad. In 1890, Greer College was established in Hoopeston, funded by a gift of $40,000 and 500 acres (2.0 km 2) of land from John Greer.
