The Forward Ride

The Forward Ride

Good motor, even head. This horse wants to go, and mostly goes about it in an uncomplicated way. Athletic without the edge, forward without the drama. The kind of horse that makes ambitious goals feel possible without making every ride an event.

About this horse

$8,000 USD NEGOTIABLE Disciplines: 4H, Barrels-Poles-Gymkhana, Drill Team, Horsemanship, Intermediate Rider Recommended, Mounted Games, Ranch Riding-Ranch Pleasure, Ranch Trail Class, Trail Riding, Western Meet Pongo! He is a 14 hh, 12 year old, leopard Appaloosa, gelding with a ton of spunk. He is healthy - chunky even - and ready to find his new home. He goes barefoot just fine. He is up to date on everything including teeth having had a performance float done. He was started out in life as a lesson and jumping pony but his confirmation wasn't really ideal for that. We have found that he is best ridden western by someone not really looking for too much speed. He is a pretty solid trail horse and could work in most lower level ranch/ western riding. He has a strong personality and needs a strong personality in a person to match. He would be a great fit for someone who likes a challenge and who is looking for a ride-or-die partner in what they want to do. Intermediate to advanced rider would be best or a rider with experienced parents/ guardians. He has begun to learn to neck rein and is beginning to move off of leg pressure pretty well. His price will continue to increase as we continue to work with him. We only have pictures at the moment but videos will be coming soon. [contact info removed]
