Ruff Cut is a very sweet natured and relaxed 16yo TB gelding. He was being used for our school program many years ago but got fired when he threw out a buck. Our school program is for baby bay beginners and he was not suited for multiple beginner riders per day. He was then placed in a pasture and went unworked for several more years until a rider started working with him. She had him jumping consistent 2’-2’3” courses with changes. Unfortunately she went to school abroad and he has been sitting since (about 3 years). Ruff is now coming slowly back into work. He is walk trot cantering on a loopy rein and trotting nicely over poles. He needs to gain weight and muscle, as well as get his feet done (barefoot right now), but he is sound. He’s very quiet and well mannered on the ground. I haven’t taken him out yet but I imagine he will be a lovely trail horse! He currently lives outside 24/7 with mares and geldings *we do not have papers on Ruff as he was donated to our school program and has been with us for ~10 years. We are working with our brand inspector to start fresh with him :)
