Northern Jazz

This week's Horse of the Week is a handsome bay thoroughbred gelding, Northern Jazz. Jazz stands 16 hh and is 6 years old. He is owned and loved by Lauren Cook of Orillia, Ontario. Lauren competes in Hunter and shows on the Trillium circuit. Presently Jazz is jumping 2 '6" fences. In the future Lauren would also like to compete in Jumper competitions with Jazz. A good guide to the difference between hunter and jumper can be found here.

Jazz is a friendly guy and loves every other horse he meets. He also loves head rubs and his favourite treats are blackberries and "crunch", a yummy equine treat. While Jazz does not like the scary unseen "monsters" he thinks lurk in the dark corners of the arena, he has been known to not even bat an eye at a large transport truck passing by honking it's loud horn!

Congratulations to Jazz for being our September 4th, 2006 Horse of the Week!
