Nicki is a 2021 AQHA gelding that checks all the boxes—looks, brains, and bloodlines. Standing 14.3 hands tall and wrapped in a rich chocolate palomino coat, he has a striking white blaze down his face and one crisp white sock that gives him just the right amount of chrome. He is the kind of horse that gets noticed—and remembered. Bred for talent and trainability, Nicki goes back to two AQHA Hall of Fame legends: Shining Spark and Peptoboonsmal. With bloodlines like that, it is no surprise he is naturally athletic, smart, and has a great work ethic. He has already been out checking cattle, ridden through creeks and water crossings, and safely traveled along busy state roads. Nicki has also been ridden by children, showing his kind, gentle nature, and level-headed personality. In the arena, Nicki shines just as much. He knows his leads, has a smooth one-hand neck rein, and is already picking up a solid lead change. His three gaits are balanced and easy to ride, and he is confident working both inside the arena and out on the trail. We believe Nicki has the talent and build to go in about any direction—from ranch work to rodeo or even barrels—and he is flashy enough to turn heads doing it. He wears shoes on all four feet due to the terrain where we ride, but he also sound barefoot if preferred. He is up to date on his vaccinations, deworming, and dental care, and he is ready to be your next trusted partner. If you are looking for a well-started young gelding with a golden future, we think Nicki could be the one. Please feel free to reach out to Duane @ 330-231-2324 for more information.
