If your idea of the perfect fall is crisp mornings, golden afternoons, and miles of beautiful trails beneath you, then you need a Bravo in your life. He’s the perfect 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐫-𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧’, 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥-𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧’, genuinely 𝐟𝐮𝐧-𝐭𝐨-𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐞 kind of gelding — and yes, he’ll even drink a beer with you. Standing 𝟏𝟒.𝟑½𝐇 and still maturing, this attractive 𝟓-𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 is expected to finish around a solid 15H. He is every bit as kind as he is handsome, with the sort of 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 personality that makes a day in the saddle feel less like work and more like something you simply never want to end.​𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐨 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞, and he doesn’t pretend to be one. He doesn’t have fancy buttons or big athletic ambitions. What he does have is something that is becoming increasingly hard to find — a 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥 and an adventurous personality that makes exploring new places enjoyable.​He will 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫, 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞𝐬, 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐬, and take whatever the trail puts in front of him in stride. His 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝-𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐦𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞, with the kind of easy rhythm that makes you want to sit in the saddle all afternoon. If your perfect ride involves getting lost down a beautiful trail rather than chasing the clock, Bravo may very well be your kind of horse.
He has been extensively hauled since he was a youngster, attending roping practices where he was tied to the fence, riding in different arenas, going on trail outings, and experiencing all sorts of new environments. He loads and hauls well and is comfortable away from home. He has been ridden downtown, stopped at Sonic for a quick snack, and even ponied alongside a backhoe tractor. Bravo takes new experiences in stride and genuinely seems to enjoy seeing what’s around the next corner. In the arena, he has a basic walk, trot, and canter and is perfectly content to do his job. But his 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥. He is the horse you take when you want to enjoy the ride, soak in the scenery, and spend time with your horse rather than fussing over every stride.
​And then there’s his personality. Bravo is the never-met-a-stranger type — 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐲, 𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞, and absolutely convinced that everyone he
