For your consideration: Ace is an 8 year old grade Quarter Horse gelding standing at 15 hands with a very stocky build. For the past almost 3 years Ace has been at a Therapeutic Boarding School and used in the riding program. Unfortunately Ace is not a good fit for the program and has mainly been ridden by myself. Ace is a sweetheart but he’s very sensitive under saddle and has bucked with the students if they are not a balanced rider and have quiet hands. Ace likes to be ridden by one person and would thrive in a home where he was loved by someone. Ace will NOT be considered for a riding program, lesson program, or for kids due to him still being green and taking advantage of inexperienced riders. Ace rides beautifully when ridden by myself, who has over 20 years of riding experience. Ace has beautiful movement and is voice command trained for walk, trot, canter. Ace neck reigns, and typically is ridden western but will ride English as well. Ace has not been exposed to trails or anything off the property since he’s been here, but he will ride around the road on our 120 acre property and in the fields. Ace has more whoa than go but he will do what he is asked with the right rider. Ace can be spooky due to lack of exposure but his reactions consist of staring and refusing to go forward- he is not a bolter. Ace IS exposed to golf carts and heavy machinery which he is not bothered by. Ace is currently barefoot and has not needed shoes since the property is not rocky. Ace is UTD on shots, farrier, and dentals. He does not have an UTD coggins- due to him not leaving the property. If a coggins is needed- the buyer will be responsible for the cost and scheduling the coggins. Ace is currently turned out alone due to being too bossy to our elderly herd and has no issues being by himself, seeing the horses over the fence. He is used to 24/7 turnout but can also be stalled. He stands quiet for the vet, farrier, and dentist. Stands quiet for grooming and tacking and bathing. IMPORTANT* please read the entirety of the ad before asking questions. Any questions asked that is stated in the post will not be answered. Please don’t waste my time and I won’t waste yours. I am looking to find Ace the BEST home possible since he is a wonderful horse for the right person. Ace will not be sold as a children’s horse or for a riding program. Ace is sold AS IS with no exchange policy or trial. Please reach out only if you are interested and we will schedule a time to come see Ace. *Buyer is responsible for transportation of the horse.
