Smudge of Smoke is a high mileage gelding with the heart to do it all. He is accustomed to 20-30 mile average rides. He is sound, excels at vet checks, doesn't need shoes, current on vaccinations, dewormed regularly. He has been all over the USA on rides, has competed in ACTHA & EXCA rides. He will go all day long without complaint. Stands tied all night in camp. Great about water, bridges, brushwacking, dogs. Has been cross trained...has done beginning dressage, some jumping, gaming, team penning and ranch sorting, broke to drive single. Has been used as a mount for a disabled youth. Can be a little forward when fresh, would be best with a confident rider. I ride him in a Myler comfort snaffle. If you are a serious rider looking for a fun horse this is your guy! Great Grandson of Fire Chief.
