The opportunity to touch the face of an American legend, Ghost, is part of the mustang magic on display at the Sweetbeau Horses Open House Fundraiser July 2, 2024.
“It’s an unforgettable moment when you have connected with such an intelligent horse whose ancestors enabled the building of this nation,” describes Patricia Soffel, founder of Sweetbeau Horses regarding the opportunity to be up-close to a formerly wild mustang.

Mustang Magic Begins with Ghost
The story of Ghost begins as he was one of the fiercest and most-photographed mustangs. He was mostly spotted just showing up in a herd, like a wrecking ball, instigating fights and chaos and then he would simply disappear. Wild mustang enthusiasts enjoyed capturing his natural, wild presence through a lens.
Now Ghost is now an ambassador for the Mustang breed here at Sweetbeau Horses in Creston, California. He will be greeting guests at Sweetbeau Horses Open House on July 2, 2024.
