This little gelding has got what it takes for showing and winning. He's not for a beginner. Paso training is not something I'm familiar with. He has more 'brio' than any I've ever seen. One criteria I've seen in pictures of Pasos at show is taking them across the 'sounding board'. His rhythm is excellent at standing on a wood floor. He was purchased for trail riding but would better serve the person who shows. He requires a Jochim bridle (spelling is incorrect, I'm sure) of which I do not have due to having other horses wh do not require one for trail riding. His disposition is great, but he's a little nervous which is, I'm sure, due to his training when he was younger. Once he knows you're NOT going to hurt him, he stands quietly for grooming, being saddles, for the farrier, etc. He loads without hesitation and is current on all vaccines and Coggins.
