Additional Comments

Katie is a true 16 hand 2016 mare that is Southern Playboy line bred. I have not run out of good things to say about this mare since I bought her from Clyde and Samantha Connelly in February of 2018 as a long yearling. She has the disposition, speed, athleticism, gait, conformation, and size I’ve always dreamed of having. She is the easiest horse I’ve ever broke to ride and has carried me many, many miles in the past few years and is a proven competitive endurance horse up to 55 miles.... (read more) There is absolutely nothing this horse will not do under saddle and gives 100% effort every ride. I have videos of her riding down busy highways, through the city, around moving trains, she’s been roped off of, loves water- I truly have yet to find something she won’t do. She has been used as a lesson horse and had a partial lease to a beginner rider in her 70s, but I will say that she really likes to move out and will be happier with a rider that lets her do so. To be completely honest, it can be a challenge to clip the insides of her ears but it is doable and she is very easy to clip elsewhere. She has TONS of rhythm and shake, with her flat foot walk and running walk being her strongest gaits, though she does have a lovely fox trot, and produces gorgeous, performance style movers when bred to the right stallions. She produced HHF Final Play, a stunning, confident, people oriented, black filly by Cardinal’s MVP in 2021, and a gorgeous colt by HHF Bentley in October 2023 that we’d like to retain. She is open but can be sold in foal to HHF Bentley at no additional cost at the buyer’s request.
