Solo is every little girl's dream! He is easy to catch, leads, loads and hauls beautifully, ties, great for the farrier, goes barefoot, saddles and bridles well, rides Western and English, Jumps 2'6" with ease, has done some Dressage, goes out alone on trails without a fuss, opens gates, has a nice walk, trot and lope, good stop and back, moves well off of leg and seat. He is not hot and not a dead head, he is willing to go whatever speed you ask for. Easy keeper! Kid's are moving up to big horses.
