Times Square

10 Year Old | 16.3hh | Grey Gelding | OTTB
Elite Pedigree • Scope • Versatility • Amateur Safe

Times Square is a 10-year-old, 16.3hh grey OTTB gelding with the size, bone, and presence to stand out anywhere.

He was sold as a 2-year-old for $250,000 and is a son of the legendary Tapit — one of the most influential sires in the Thoroughbred industry (2026 stud fee: $185,000).... (read more) It is rare to find this level of pedigree in such a versatile, user-friendly package.

But he is more than just his bloodlines — he is truly broke.

Broke & Reliable

• Neck reins
• Rides English & Western
• Soft, responsive, and balanced
• Rides out alone or in a group
• Not barn sour or buddy sour
• Barefoot and sound
• No spook, buck, or rear
• Crosses water confidently

He has been trail ridden extensively and has even been hog hunted at night — steady, level-headed, and brave in new environments.

He has been started on the barrel pattern (loping it with natural rate and enthusiasm) and you can rope off of him. He is adaptable and confident in multiple settings.

Jumping Ability

Though I am not a jumper, I pointed him at a natural obstacle to see how he would respond — a stack of logs approximately 5 feet wide and 2’5” tall.

He locked on and soared over it without hesitation. No peek, no question — just scope and confidence. He jumped like a horse with prior training who knew his job. Athletic, honest, and brave.

Temperament & Handling

He is sensible enough for beginners yet athletic enough for a performance-oriented home. He adapts to his rider and remains consistent.

He does crib, which is fully managed with a collar.

Excellent for the farrier, stands quietly, loads, hauls, and handles like a gentleman.

This is a big, classy gelding with elite bloodlines, independence, and versatility. He fits a performance, ranch, or sport home and is the kind of horse that can go in multiple directions.

Located in south central Oklahoma I have a passion for rehabilitating horses and giving them a second chance at life . I believe all horses should be very desensitized and exposed to various situations to prevent accidents which helps these horses find hopefully their forever home. I one day would love to open an equine rescue, where I can focus on saving as many horses as possible.
