Star was born to race—her sleek brown coat and fiery spirit made her a natural on the track. She loved the thrill of speed, the sounds of cheering crowds, and the adrenaline of each gallop. When her racing days ended, however, her future took a dark turn. Slated to be sold off to Eastern Europe for slaughter, Star was rescued at the eleventh hour by Lucy, a compassionate horse lover from Penicuik, near Edinburgh.
In Lucy’s loving care, Star discovered a different kind of peaceful life. She spent her days grazing in rolling fields, nuzzling with other horses, and enjoying gentle grooming sessions. Lucy often whispered, "You’re safe here," as Star’s dark eyes softened with trust. Over the years, Star’s playful nickers and calm presence warmed many hearts around her. She even helped Lucy’s granddaughter learn to ride, standing patiently through countless attempts at mounting.
Star’s life became a testament to resilience—once destined for a tragic end, she instead found sanctuary and love. She lived out her final years surrounded by the kind of peace and compassion every horse deserves.
From racetrack roar to quiet green,
A second chance, a gentle dream.
Saved from fate that’s cold and stark,
In Lucy’s light, you left your mark.
