He has the smoothest trot you won’t believe! He can climb mountains all day long.He’s a good boy too he has a medium temperament he comes down nicely and gets up nicely. He needs at least an advanced confident beginner. He does neck rein in a curb but. Stops great. Reverse. Hops in the trailer, ties quiet and stands. No tacking up issues. He’s located in Mariposa possible delivery depending on location thank you! Easy to catch! Wears shoes we rode a lot just down the actual road and when covering ground we go down steep rocky grades & inclines. He rides through brush creek beds, down the road in the lake. Form price serious inquiries only please. Located in Mariposa not Modesto however I could haul there to meet for delivery should a purchase happen.
