Cheerio is a tall, dark, and undeniably elegant gentleman with presence that commands attention the moment he enters the pen. He carries himself with quiet confidence, the kind that doesn’t need an introduction. His good looks turn heads, and his personable, easygoing nature keeps people watching. Built to last, Cheerio has substantial bone, correct conformation, and a balanced frame. He stands 15.2 hands, weighs 1,200 pounds, and is an ideal size for a wide range of riders. Under saddle, he is smooth, soft, and uncomplicated, offering nearly imperceptible lead changes, excellent body control, and a lope so comfortable it feels more luxury than work. Naturally laid back, he prefers a relaxed pace but willingly steps up when asked, always polite and responsive. Ready to step directly into the show pen, Cheerio is well suited for the Ranch classes and confidently navigates horse show trail obstacles with precision and ease. He is double registered with AQHA and APHA, providing versatility and opportunity for exhibitors who enjoy options without sacrificing quality. On the ground, Cheerio is every bit the gentleman you hope for. He enjoys attention, behaves impeccably, and is easy to clip, bathe, shoe, and haul. New environments don’t faze him, and he handles his surroundings with a calm, unbothered demeanor. Outside the arena, he is a pleasant and confident trail partner, comfortable riding alone or in a group. Bred to be fancy, Cheerio carries the legendary bloodlines of Dont Skip Zip, Zippo Pine Bar, and Zippo Pine Chex, a pedigree known for producing elite movement, trainability, and longevity in the show pen. His talent and consistency are a direct reflection of generations of proven performance. Cheerio brings credentials to match his polish. He has earned 92 AQHA points, $4,566.53 in NSBA earnings, and his Performance Register of Merit in 2024. He qualified in Working Western Rail and was a finalist in Junior Ranch Riding Level 2 at the 2025 AQHA World Show, proving he belongs when the competition is at its best. With eye-catching chrome, proven performance, and a kind, enjoyable personality, Cheerio is the complete package. He knows he’s handsome, knows how to win, and still manages to be easy to live with—a rare and valuable combination. Cheerio is located in Belen, New Mexico. We would be happy to arrange a time for you to meet him in person. For more information or to schedule a visit, please call Estevan at 505-450-5519.
