Re: [RC] [RC] Hind End confirmation - Marlene Moss
This past summer I ended up getting a half arab half quarter
mare. Her previous owner wanted to make her into a barrel horse, I think
she’s very happy that didn’t happen. She’s been amazing
so far in our training. She is smooth and moves up hills like they aren’t
even there. She’d never had shoes and has flown over major rocks
like they aren’t there.
A couple weeks ago I mentioned to a lady sending 2 of her
horses to our place for training that I have really begun to appreciate the
arab/quarter cross and she asked me if I wanted a horse of hers she wasn’t
getting along with. She’s a western pleasure rider and bought the
horse to expand to hunter jumper. She’s 7/8 arab, 1/8 quarter and
is very nicely forward and definitely got the butt from the quarter side.
Now I have to decide which one to ride and which to sell (a thing I’m not
good at since now I have 13 that all need work!)
On another note, this new mare is incredibly wide and has a
very level back. Interestingly both of them have very level backs, but
the one that is sooooo wide has me needing a new saddle. Anyone have an
extra wide FnE saddle they want to sell or trade?
