Siam is a 23 year old national show horse. He acts younger than his age. He does have some arthritis but nothing bad. he is more flexible if worked consistantly. I am offering him for sale because he isn't safe for a heavier rider (over 180 lbs) he would do great as a lesson horse or someone looking to do arena or flat work with him. he really knows his stuff just needs a refresher. beginner safe but not suggested for a small child since he does have his jumpy arab moments.
