https://youtu.be/pZzT0WM73es https://youtu.be/pLWphS7_-8w Above are two links to video compilations. They have different footage so watch both! I made the first, and then realized I’d forgotten to include a bunch of stuff I wanted to show. Stunningly gorgeous, very sensitive, available to a savvy rider only. This boy was pulled out of pasture last August after years of being back burnered. He’s brave, light as can be, responsive, willing, and forward. He likes a job. He is made to be a dancer. He has started riding with the Garrocha and he is a natural. He is very comfortable moving underneath and around the pole. He has also been introduced to the WE Bull and other WE obstacles and has handled them like a champ. He would excel at WE. Has had ropes thrown off of him, dragged things and groundwork for roping. Shows really good potential as a rope horse, but we don’t have any steers to practice with. Lovely gaits, naturally a rocking horse canter. Very agile. Side pass, rein back, yields, Stands tied. Great ground manners—my four year old son leads him. Easy to catch, lead, load, trim. Barefoot with nice feet. He will continue in training until he is sold. tack fit is important for him. He does not do well with tack that doesn’t fit or any pinching/discomfort. He will buck if his tack doesn’t fit right. And if it fits well, he’s a happy camper and willing (check the videos). He also enjoys being ridden bareback. Rides in a snaffle or bosal. He was imported from Spain as a baby, but his previous owner lost his papers. He wasn’t gelded until 2 years ago. I can ride him around mares and he’s all business, but I don’t turn him out for pasture time with mares as he flirts.
