The Best Horse to Trust.........if you are looking to fulfill your
dream of riding late in life........this is your guy!

Nikaia

Nikaia is a 14 year old dark bay gelding who wants to teach new riders the basics. He is a gentleman and very trustworthy. Nikaia would probably win the title of "Most Honest & Reliable" on our farm. He is a kind horse with a big heart and is a perfect horse to teach jumping. Nikai was a 4' 7"jumper, but time & use catch up with us all. In order to keep Nikaia sound and comfortable, he will be kept at 2' to 2'6"heights.

a stoic 20 year old gelding and a true gentleman. He can be
ridden both english and western and will go anywhere. He stands
16.1 and is quite stout as well. Paint is the horse that you wished
you had ......it's easy to envision several children straddling his
back while he grazes. Paint will put you "back in the saddle again".

He is very calm and steady, making him perfect for new riders or anyone who wants to take a mellow ride.

Harry

Harry is an older liver chestnut gelding with unlimited energy. He has earned the name "The Energizer Bunny". He refuses to be retired and paces the fence line waiting for someone to take him out on a ride. Because of his forward attitude, he is best suited for an intermediate rider.

Mozart was then leased out when his owner went to college and became a star in the equitation ring. He piloted many riders to ribbons in WIHS and Mini Medal/Maclay classes. At fifteen, Mozart retired from the stressful horse show world and is looking to help educate a new rider. At 17, this gelding ready to introduce new riders to the sport. He is calm and experienced with riders of all levels, but is best suited to walk-trot riders at this stage in his life.
