Poncho is the epitome of what everyone looks for in a draft cross. He is half percheron & half quarter horse and he displays the best characteristics of both breeds. He stands a sturdy 15.3hh with incredible bone, substance & feet. His big hip, great shoulder and back make his conformation flawless and the beautiful buckskin roan color is just the cherry on top.
Poncho has been in the same full time program for the past year and during that time he has won the hearts of the entire family being the barn favorite. He has seen countless miles out on the roads, riding through town, through the pastures, trails, cattle and loads of arena work. And he does it all well and has been enjoyed by all who have ridden him. In the arena he is impressive. He rides around like a pro…..big stop, will ride on a completely draped rein, or will pick up respectfully on contact. Super lateral work, he will side pass with ease and do a beautiful trot half pass. He will effortlessly collect up or move out. Pivots, rollbacks, and rides bridle less. He has been ridden English, taken over some small cross rails willingly, and has schooled dressage. He is very mature in the mouth and will pack around any bit, and works the same in a bridle bit or a snaffle. Very easy and uncomplicated ride.
This horse truly is the definition of versatility. He has a very trainable mind, and loves to work. He is one you can take out to move cattle & do ranch work on one day, and turn around and take to the dressage arena (or western dressage) the next day. Or take him for a moonlight drive down the road one night, and go ride in a cowhorse clinic the next day. He’s a naturally cadenced mover, very smooth, level headed, great on his feet, and can handle any terrain. He crosses water, logs, rides through the timber, heavy traffic, will drag logs, carries the flag, jumps, pasture ropes, rides out alone without issues, and lopes through the fields or down the roads on a slack rein. He will also do all arena work bridle less with ease.
Poncho is very well mannered on the ground. Ties, cross ties, bathes, and is great for the vet and farrier. Wonderful in a stall and acts like a seasoned pro in new environments. He is an absolute joy to have. He is up to date on farrier, teeth and chiropractic work, he has a brand new coggins, and a current PPE on file. Easy keeper that requires no special cares or maintenance.
You will be hard pressed to find another one just like him
