He doesn't come with a show record, but that's actually part of his story—he's had time to develop into something special: an honest, steady mover with real presence. A pre-purchase exam revealed some mild arthritic changes, but proactive joint maintenance with ProStride has delivered outstanding results. And a full year of consistent, soft training at Golden Gate showed zero additional maintenance needed, never I'm a misstep —which speaks volumes about both the training approach and how well the program is working. He's managed well and ready to go.

He's well-suited to low-level Hunters and entry-level Equitation, and he's proven himself as a confidence-builder for amateurs and capable teens. What you're looking at is an honest horse who's ready to work.

We're prioritizing the right match and his asking price of $10k is negotiable and we're open to creative offers from homes that will keep him in good work and appreciate what he brings.
