(For those of you who were at 20 Mule Team. I was riding her there).
She is about 14 hh, chestnut. Very slight build.
She just completed her first LD ride (20 MT) and did very well. Spent
the night tied to the trailer, rode with other horses, let other horses
pass her, passed other horses, rode alone. Started with all the other
horses going 100 mph without being silly or stupid. Was very easy to rate.
Ponies along beside another horse. Never pulls on the bit.
Can be a bit inattentive as she is fascinated by her surroundings and
frequently feels that she needs to "have a better look"
She should be suitable for a junior rider (a 12 y.o is coming out next
weekend to take her on a trail ride), or a featherweight (me and all my
tack weighs approx 160 lbs); although she has carried men on the trail
over shorter distances, because of her slight build she is not really
suitable for a tall rider.
Her owners bought her from a breeder who was about to go broke and have
spent literally thousands of dollars over the last year on boarding,
breaking and training her. They are very concerned that she go to a good
home and are asking $1,000, but would be willing to work out terms, etc.
if they were convinced that it would be a good home for her.
She's a nice little horse with tons of personality. She has no papers
(as her breeder was too broke to pay the registration fee), but she is
not what I would describe as either breeding quality (because of her
size) or show quality ('cuz she just ain't), so the lack of papers
shouldn't really matter.
Email me privately or give me a call (714/529-3765) if you are or know of
anybody who is interested.
Inquiries into what she is like to ride with can be directed to Becky
Hackworth, as we covered a little bit of the 20 MT trail with her last
weekend.
