We are the second owner of this horse and he belongs to our 11 year old daughter. He is very gentle and friendly and just starting under a saddle: We are not experienced enough to take him any farther and do not want to ruin him by not helping him learn what he needs to know. Due to this we would recommend him for experienced riders only. Both his father (tobiano black) and mother (bay tobiano) were registered pinto horses: We never finished his registration. We only have enough room for one horse and have taken in an older rescue mare that is a good beginner riding horse for our daughter; the mare knows everything she needs to know and we have to catch up with her. We are only asking what we paid for him two years ago: He is a truly gorgous horse and his photo does not do him justice. He is very quick and intelligent as well. He does have just a touch of bay coloration that shows on his rear flanks and in his tail as well. I don't really want to see him go, but do not think it is fair to keep him without adequate grazing or without us knowing enough to help him go to the next level.
