Sophie, a 16 hands high chestnut mixed breed, was born in 1994 and retired to Ryerss farm on April 26, 2015.  She showed briefly in her younger years but a spinal injury put an end to that career and so she spent her time grazing in a pasture with a herd mate. She is now part of the herd at Ryerss and is living with a larger group of horses than she had ever experienced before.
