For sale: 16.3 hand, WBX 12-year-old palomino mare. Well put together with a big, comfy stride. Can go in many directions, but likely better suited to enjoying the lower levels. Requires a confident rider, ideally intermediate or above. She’s well-schooled, tries hard, and isn’t nasty, but can have a spook, some anxiety, and occasional stubborn streak.
Easy keeper, lives in or out. Fine in a herd, though can be a bit of a loner. (Does need to be separated for grain feedings, though she doesn’t really need grain anyway). Never buddy sour! Stands tied for hours, great for the farrier (barefoot), tolerates the vet (if you catch her before she gets sight of their truck in the driveway). Has been clipped a few times, and bathes ok if the water is warm. Sound. Old surgery and some changes to the right hock, but hasn’t bothered her for years. Mid-high fours, negotiable to the perfect home.
SO: Do you want to have fun and bring home the ribbons? This is your guy! 16.2 hand, 16 year-old QH/TB gelding. Naturally competitive and athletic, this guy has excelled at every sport we’ve tried him in. Jumps, does some dressage, extreme cowboy, games, you name it. Hacks out amazing. Knows all the ring work but can get bored and lazy about it. Best suited for an intermediate and up, simply to keep up with his brain and athleticism (we’ve had beginners on him occasionally with no problems).
Easy to have around, this guy clips like a dream, bathes, and is great for the vet and farrier. Loves a stall with a nice deep bed at night, but goes out with a group no problem. Requires very light maintenance and some management considerations for allergies, but sound and with years of riding in him yet. Don’t miss out on your chance to own the barn favourite!
