Emmy Lu Slew
2009 16.1 HH Bay Thoroughbred Mare
“Emmy” is a stunning, athletic off-the-track Thoroughbred with a truly royal pedigree. As the granddaughter of the 1977 Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew, she carries both beauty and legacy. Emmy is a sweet, sensitive mare who thrives on routine and becomes wonderfully “in-your-pocket” once trust is established.
Emmy has been ridden at the walk and trot and is currently building confidence in her trot work in the arena. She is intelligent, eager to learn, and responds best to calm, consistent handling. As she is still green, Emmy will need an experienced rider to continue developing her skills. She does especially well with a structured yet varied training schedule that blends riding with confidence-building activities—liberty work is a favorite.
At this stage of her career, Emmy is best suited for a low-impact flatwork home. She receives annual hock injections, benefits from regular chiropractic care, and currently wears front nail-on shoes. While she once had a reputation for being hard to catch, a consistent routine of bringing her up to her stall each day has completely resolved that behavior.
With time, trust, and a few well-placed snacks, Emmy’s loyalty and heart truly shine. If you’re looking for a talented, responsive partner to grow with, Emmy could be the perfect match.

Adoption Home Level: Intermediate
This adopter has spent a good amount of time around horses—through lessons, mentorship, or hands-on experience—and feels confident handling and caring for them independently. They’re comfortable riding at all gaits (walk, trot, and canter), and can lunge or round pen a horse with ease. They also have some experience with less-seasoned or “greener” horses, especially when working with support from a trainer.
