Charlie is a very easy going gelding, not much bothers him. Get on and just go, he doesnt care. He is rode very inconsistently but stays the same horse. Ridden in the feedlot and has done those jobs. Early this summer he got in to some fence and has a nasty scar on his right hind leg. I havent tried to ride him since then but he should be ok for light riding now with the potential for harder work in the future. He is young but his mind is solid, I believe a youth could get along with him.
