About this horse

$12,500 USD Disciplines: Barrel Racing, Barrels-Poles-Gymkhana, Beginner-Safe, Kid-Friendly, Lesson, Trail Riding, Western, Youth Rugged Lena is a 2012 15h sorrel gelding that checks all the boxes: safe, broke, smooth, and fun. He’s the ultimate confidence-building trail partner who’s just as happy riding out alone as he is with a group. Need a horse that takes care of his rider? Rugger is your guy. He stands patiently at the mounting block, has a super awesome stop, and offers smooth, slower gaits and only goes as fast as you ask. He opens and closes gaits easily, has a natural collected frame, knows his leads, counter arcs, and has all the tools of a truly well-trained horse. Lightly patterned on the barrels, very broke, and responsive without being hot — he’s a pleasure to ride every time. Rugger is not picky about bits and can even be ridden in a hackamore. He’s easy to saddle, has excellent ground manners, and can sit for long periods without needing a tune-up — just hop on and go. No diet restrictions, loves his baths, wears front shoes, and stands great for the farrier. If you’re looking for a safe, versatile, honest gelding that’s ready to enjoy right now, Rugger is it. 1️⃣2️⃣,5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ 📍 Located at [contact info removed] 📍 [contact info removed]
