His registered name is SKB Sinatra Image so, we call him Frank. When he first got here he was afraid of everything and it took him a while to learn how to be a horse. He trusts his rider now, but needs someone confident for the next 6 months. He has never offered to buck or bolt. He only has 4 months on him and is 3 years old, so he is NOT a kids horse now. He is not fast and will never be a performance horse. He is VERY sweet and quite social. He rides out fine by himself, But if he was kept in a pen all alone, he would go a little nutty. He needs a buddy. I put his temperament at 4/10, but if he was kept alone, he would be a 9/10. After a year with a skilled wrangler he would do well at a guest ranch. He loves repetition. Put him in between two seasoned horses and he would have no problem carrying a large person and stand tied all day. He is not gritty or tough and is a big baby. He doesn't really think for himself and will follow anyone else around. (Those are Gold's Gym muscles and a Gold's gym mind. I can't say he is super bright :) Or he could be a therapy horse. He wants to be loved. His rear right hoof grows at an odd angle and his teeth are a mess, but he is not lame and eats just fine. His tail will grow out. It looks like a pom-pom right now.
