Please let me introduce “Rico” 16.2hh gray gelding
Rico (Silver Jupiter FL) was bred by Fuego Lodge, and is 7 years old. His Sire is Regal Jupiter (Warmblood) who is by Jaguar, and his Dam is Silver Rain, who is by Jaleador (PRE (Spanish) out of a WB Mare who was by Gibraltar. He was broken in at 4 and then left for 2 years, due to circumstances no fault of his own.
Rico is with us to be sold on behalf – which I don’t usually do unless I started them – but I got to know Rico trough lessons and always loved how calm and trainable he was.
He came here 2 weeks ago and has put his mind to anything we put in front of him! He hasn’t seen and done much really in the last few years – but anything we asked him to do, he happily said yes!
From starting to pop over little jumps – to doing our Cowboy Challenge Obstacles- or hacking out in a big group of 6 horses – walk trot canter – up and down hills. He has just been a dream to work with as he just soaks up everything!
He is calm and quiet – yet not lazy. He goes happily forward and very easily of the leg. Soft snaffle mouth. Has all the basic flatwork established - but is still at the beginning stages of his schooling.
Very responsive doing groundwork. Impeccable ground manners, floats easy, great for the farrier etc. etc. etc.
He has the brain to do Western disciplines , the breeding to do jumping or low level dressage .
There really isn’t much that can be held against him – the only thing is that he is still a bit inexperienced for a 7 year old!
Now before you message me – PLEASE – He is NOT suited for a beginner or nervous rider!
He will be one day – 500% !
But at the moment he needs somebody with a bit of confidence who can continue his education!
He will only go to the right home and will stay in training with us until he is sold!
If he sounds like your type of guy – message me for a video, chat or come for a test ride!
