Online Auction - ONLINE BIDDING OPEN NOW THRU Thursday, March 2nd, 2023 at EquineAuction.com!
.
"Splash" Is a 2013 AQHA gelding. If your priority is SIZE, you have it here. He is a true 16.1 and has to weigh in at 1250 lbs.
.
This guy rides inside or outside of the arena. He was primarily used as a trail and ranch horse prior to coming to us. By the sounds of it all, he was owned by a novice family, who truly was just intimidated by his size - which, if you saw him in person, you would understand (lol).
.
Trails have been the agenda for this guy thus far in his life. We have taken this guy out in the hayfield, up and down deep snow hills, and out in our woods - all without hesitation. He has even crossed rivers, and this time of year - I mean a frozen slate of ice. He is sure footed and will take care of his rider where you point him, and has proved that for us!
.
Splash has all the buttons you'd want in a broke one. He is HANDY. He will ride off on a lose rein or collect up right in the bridle. He can do a sale barn turn around and is as handy as they can make them. He is built like a big one, but dang sure can move with the best of them if asked.
.
He has passed all of our desensitizing criteria: flags, tarps, ropes, yoga balls, dogs, cats, mules, and cattle. Besides maybe learning a little more patience under saddle to just "stand still", he is good to go! We do recommend an intermediate on rider up for this guy: simply because he is big, and he is not a deadhead!
.
He lives outside full time in a mixed herd, on roundbales and an automatic water - they don't come easier than that! He is UTD on all of his vet work, and is ready to be sent off.
.
Shipping can be arranged anywhere that is needed, do not hesitate to ask for a quote!
