SOQUILI’S MANOLITO
WCHS Veteran • Proven Youth/Walk-Trot Show Horse • Riding & Driving
American Saddlebred Gelding • 15.1 Hands • $30,000 OBO
Soquili’s Manolito is a beautifully bred, extensively shown registered American Saddlebred gelding with a remarkable career spanning more than a decade.
Foaled May 30, 2009, Manolito stands 15.1 hands and is a chestnut gelding with distinctive white markings. He is by Undulata’s Nutcracker, out of Mandala Remembered, with Phi Slama Jama as his broodmare sire.
Manolito offers something increasingly difficult to find: pedigree, major-show experience, versatility, longevity, and proven usefulness with both adult and youth riders.
His extensive résumé includes competition in Fine Harness, Three-Gaited, Park, Show Pleasure, English Pleasure, Walk/Trot, and driving.
Among his career highlights, Manolito placed 3rd at the World’s Championship Horse Show in Junior Fine Harness Stallion/Gelding and returned for the Junior Fine Harness Championship, where he placed 4th. He later returned to the World’s Championship Horse Show in other divisions, including Three-Gaited Park Amateur in 2016 and Three-Gaited Show Pleasure Adult in 2017, where he placed 5th out of 16 in his division.
His more recent record demonstrates that he remained a useful and competitive show horse well beyond his early career. In 2024, he won the Southeastern Charity Open Pleasure W/T/J Championship, and he continued competing through the 2025 season.
In March 2025, Manolito won the ASAC Open Walk/Trot Stake, and later that spring he continued showing in Open English Pleasure Walk/Trot competition.
One of Manolito’s greatest strengths is his versatility. His career has progressed from major Fine Harness, Three-Gaited, and Park competition into Show Pleasure, English Pleasure, youth Walk/Trot, and driving. He has been shown successfully by multiple riders and has accumulated wins, championships, and strong placings across several disciplines.
His recent photographs and videos show him both under saddle and in harness, including successful youth-rider competition and current riding footage.
Manolito is an excellent candidate for someone seeking a seasoned, accomplished Saddlebred with a fully documented résumé, rather than an unproven prospect.
