2018 16H Grade Black Tennessee Walking Horse Gelding
Major is a grade Black Tennessee Walking Horse Gelding. He was started under saddle late Fall of 2020. He was trained and ridden on and off up until Summer of 2021 and was started on trail riding. He has been trail ridden for 2 years and was taken down to Zumbro Bottoms all Fall of 2022. He is a BIG boy, he has been ridden by several people, all levels but being he is bigger and pretty strong, I do recommend at least an intermediate/confident rider. He is NOT beginner broke, has just had beginner riders on him. He is pretty easy to handle, can be kind of lazy if you allow him to be but it doesn't take much to get him going. He prefers to mosey around and will fall back into that unless encouraged but once encouraged you don't have to ask him again and he is covering ground. His confidence, speed, and carriage depend on his rider, he reads easily into the person that is riding him. He has been used mostly as an extra trail riding horse for our students. He was pulled out of a kill pen Spring of 2020 in tough condition. He was rehabilitated, trained, and I had planned on keeping him, but he is too big for my 5'2 self and seems to intimidate most of our riders because of his size. His current rider for the last year and a half, wanted a step-up horse that was not gaited but he loves Major to pieces and had tons of fun on him throughout his time with him. Major is a sweet, calm, giant. He can be a big baby and loves attention. Waits for you at the gate, walks up to be pulled out to be ridden, and nickers to you whenever he sees you. You can swing up on him in the pasture, climb all over him, ride him bareback. He doesn't mind one bit. Major would make someone an excellent trail riding partner! Please keep in mind, Major does NOT have to sell and will only be sold to the right person. His final asking price will not be negotiable. Major is not a kid's horse, nor do I think he will be one anytime soon (due to his size and lack of experience with age so please do not ask).
