Ava is a rare beauty. She is a gorgeous 15.1 chestnut mare with lots of flashy white markings. She is part Criollo, an extremely rare breed to own in the U.S. Ava has had many hats in her life. She has competed in professional polo, completed several 25-mile endurance races, and trained for mounted shooting. Ava has ridden on over 100 miles of trail and camped overnight. I have trained Ava to walk, trot and lope while shooting. She has had extensive pleasure riding training. She will ride western pleasure and Hunter under saddle. Ava learned to neck rein and spin like the best of them from polo. As her training continued, she progressed to learn to give to the bit and collect herself in a slow and comfortable trot and lope. Her pleasure riding is so good she would do very well at shows. Ava will move off your leg to turn and has a great whoa. She will come to the mounting block or fence to mount and even walk through smoke. While on the trail, she saw barking dogs, bikes, and even raging motorbikes and handled them easily. Ava has an amazing drive to work and is all heart. Ava is the first one to come to me from the pasture to get hugs and scratches. She is not at all mareish. Ava is very in your pocked and loves to please.
