ON CONSIGNMENT!
Racecar (Jax) is a 2016 APHA gelding who stands 15.2 hands. Jax just finished up a 60 day tune up and is ready to find his new home. The owner has had Jax since he was a yearling and this is a very hard decision for her but he needs consistency and her littles need a kid horse. Jax needs to be rode consistently or he can get cold backed and crow hop the first few rides. He has sat hile being consigned and i hopped on with no back cinch and he rode off like a dream. He is very quiet and a super sweet boy. He can be a little spooky from time to time but with consistent work it gets better. Jax needs an intermediate rider or someone with confidence to be his leader. Jax knows everything a horse should under saddle. He is great in a herd and low man on the totem pole. First to greet you. Can be in the pasture or stalled. Jax has no known health issues or vices. He is not a cribber, good with children, no biting, kicking or rearing. Jax does need to be fed in a hay bag as he will eat every crumb and did have to have a dirt ball removed from his stomach. He stands great for the farrier. Jax is utd on worming, farrier and vaccines. He has not had his teeth floated.
