#44 Second Chances



Michelle and Chance

Hi my name is Michelle Anctil and my team is made up of me, my gelding Chance and my other gelding Gizmo. Mid season in 2014 my boy Chance suffered a pretty serious suspensory ligament injury and was put on stall rest for 9 months. I raised Chance since his first breath so the thought of my young boy being a pasture pet was horrifying. With rest, rehab and great vet care he was given the green light to go back to work early in 2015. We rehabbed carefully and he is back to work and healed up well. We now have a second chance and I couldn't be more excited. Gizmo is my other boy who I bought when Chance was injured and he gave me a great second chance at a ride season I thought was pretty much over. These two boy are amazing and I'm excited for what 2016 has to offer. I look forward to watching everyone add up the miles and seeing pics of all the beautiful places everyone goes to ride. I live in Olympia and am always up for company when riding. Both my boys are well behaved and friendly. I'd be happy to trailer to new places too! Here's to 2016, new trails, new experiences and new friends!
