( read more ) Standing a stout 15 hands and in the prime of her life at 13 years old, Opal is the kind of horse that is getting harder and harder to find. She combines a strong, athletic build with a calm, trustworthy mind that makes her suitable for a wide range of riders. Opal has been a dependable partner for riders of all ages and experience levels. She has safely carried young and beginner riders through challenging trail terrain, always taking care of her rider and placing her feet carefully. Whether she is navigating narrow mountain trails, walking quietly through busy and chaotic town streets, or riding out alone, Opal remains calm, steady, and confident. She is as close to “bombproof” as they come. Dogs, cattle, deer, and other wildlife do not bother her in the slightest. Opal does not spook, buck, or get fresh, even with time off. She maintains the same quiet and willing attitude every time you saddle her up. Opal has an impressive and versatile background. She has carried flags, been used as a lesson horse, participated in downtown parades, and competed in trail competitions. She is the type of horse you can confidently put anyone on—from a beginner rider to a more experienced horseman—and trust that she will take care of them every step of the way. She truly is a babysitter type that gives her rider confidence. Under saddle, Opal has a nice handle and is a pleasure to ride. She has a big stop with the lightest cue, lopes both directions smoothly and effortlessly, and neck reins softly. She is responsive, collected at the poll, and easy for guide, making her enjoyable for both relaxed trail rides and arena work. On the ground, Opal is just as kind and dependable as she is under saddle. She stands patiently for the farrier and is easy for routine trims. She is incredibly well-mannered when grooming, clipping, bathing, or saddling, and will stand quietly like a statue for as long as you need. Opal is never in a hurry and has a very laid-back personality. She stands tied quietly for hours, hauls like a seasoned professional in any type of trailer, and settles in easily whether stalled or turned out with other horses. Nothing seems to bother this mare—she truly has a saint-like disposition. If you are looking for a calm, safe, trustworthy horse that is fun to ride and suitable for the whole family, Opal is the one you have been searching for. She is located in Bitterwater, California.
