Manny is a 10 year old Percheron Fresian gelding standing at 16hands on the mark. Solid and respectful ground manners, stands for vet and farrier both. Waits on you to mount. Lay the reins over his neck so you can get a stool to get on and he wont move till you say! Very sweet in your pocket gelding, tender hearted and willing but not fractious or hyper reactive. He has spent most of his life driving but has been started under saddle for 4 months now and is ridden consistently each week. He has come through our program very well and is ready for his person! If you want to continue driving him, he's a pleasure to drive! Easy to hitch, stops quiet at stop signs, he has been on the road and driven in grassy/field areas many times. He has a beautiful upright headset and movement that (we think) would make for a solid working equitation or dressage mount. He has been in the arena and on the trails (and continues to be weekly), crosses water and logs without issues. He does occaisionally look at things but stays steady- he does not go sideways or surge forward, so if someone wanted to do a little jumping with him thats not a far off possibility with a little more confidence building. Has been ridden solo and in groups. In groups he does feed off the other horses, wants to keep up with those ahead of him and can get spirited around high energy horses BUT is very manageable and coming out of that with time and continued training. He would do well with an intermediate rider. Solid in the cart and he has a solid foundation under saddle, ready to finish out the way you want! Located in Rockville IN. Asking 12,500
