Currently in Greeneville, TN. Transport available.

May be best with an intermediate rider with a trainer or an experienced rider.

NOT for a beginner!!

Ridden mostly English, has had a western saddle on him with no issue.

Please read the whole ad. PM if you are interested in meeting him.

Breeding and race history in the photo album. Might be a good dressage prospect (Storm Cat and AP Indy bloodlines).

Got him in November 2020 and been pleasure ridden since.

If you love TB geldings, he may be the boy for you.

- Reason he’s looking for a new home: we’re just not a good fit / I’m not his person and visa versa.

Positives:

- sweet and loves attention

- stands to mount, good for the farrier, vet, grooming, blanketing, fly mask and spray, in a stall overnight or 24/7 turnout, etc.

- can catch him in the field

- easy keeper (cup of Balancer morning and night, free choice grazing or hay).

- microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations and dental. May need a coggins. PPE welcome at purchaser’s expense.

- currently barefoot trimmed every 6 weeks (he may need shoes with more work but he’s been without shoes for 2 years).

- sound (weird crack on one foot - growing out and doesn’t affect him)

- willingly joins up

Challenges:

- needs a trailer loading refresher (in progress)

- needs to be in a gelding herd or solo for a few weeks spring to early summer as he sometimes harasses the ladies

- gets distracted, but can be brought back down by an experienced rider.

Other:

- usually alpha in the herd.

- he’s a kick ride

- been around cows, goats, sheep, dogs, cats, poultry with no issues

- will GREATLY improve with solid groundwork and consistent riding

Offering him with a buy-back contract, lease to own, off-site lease or potentially an on-site lease.

Blankets, etc available for purchase with him.

Vet and farrier references will be requested.
