For Sale: Bach – Your Stunning Gypsy Vanner Trail & Pleasure Star! * Age: 10 years young * Height: A solid 14.3 hands high * Color: Eye-catching black and white tobiano * Registration: Fully registered with gypsy horse registry of America Inc. Meet Bach, a breathtaking Gypsy Vanner gelding who’s ready to steal your heart and become your ultimate trail and pleasure partner! This 10-year-old beauty is sound, well-built, and brimming with personality—a true standout with his striking black-and-white piebald coat and eager, forward-moving spirit. Bach is more “go” than “whoa,” but not “hot”—just an honest, brave horse who loves to explore and shine under a confident rider. He’s the perfect match for an intermediate to advanced rider—whether an adult or an experienced, advanced kid rider—someone with the know-how to channel his energy and unlock his incredible potential. When it comes to trails, Bach is nothing short of a superstar. He’s been our family’s go-to adventurer, fearlessly splashing through water, trudging through mud, clambering over rocks, and tackling rough terrain with ease. Woods, bridges, busy roads—you name it, he’s done it, always with his head held high and a proud, steady stride. He’s carried advanced kid riders with experience and adults alike through pastures, trails, and backroads, both solo and in company, and he’s been a rock-solid joy every time. Spooky? Not this boy—he’s endlessly curious, noticing everything but rarely overreacting, which makes him a fun, engaging ride. In the arena, Bach shows off his versatility. He’ll willingly trot over low jumps with a calm, honest attitude—perfect for a trail rider who likes a little extra flair! His walk and trot are dependable and smooth, ideal for leisurely hacks, while his canter is a work in progress (think green, maybe 1-2 out of 5). With a soft, uneducated mouth and a basic grasp of leg-to-hand contact, he’s got a solid foundation that just needs a skilled hand to polish—especially for English riders aiming to collect that canter. A touch of stubbornness? Sure, but it’s all part of his big personality and a reflection of past inconsistent training—nothing proper guidance and love won’t refine. On the ground, he’s safe but can be a bit “rude” in new places (call it a 2 out of 5)—never dangerous, just adjusting to his surroundings. With time and experience, he’ll smooth out even more. His jumping technique is green but promising, and his heart is all in—he’s a horse with the looks, bravery, and potential to become your go-to partner for trails, pleasure riding, or even a bit of arena fun. We’ve adored every minute with Bach, watching him grow into the special horse he is today. Now, it’s time for him to find his next adventure with someone who sees his zest for life and wants to take him to new heights. If you’re dreaming of a registered Gypsy Vanner with a heart for trails, a willingness to jump, and the foundation to become something truly extraordinary—Bach is your guy !
