Scout is a smart, kind-natured, and versatile gelding with a well-rounded resume and a calm, trainable temperament.
✔ Three easy paces with more woah than go, a straightforward ride with a smooth back, soft off seat and voice cues
✔ Well-mannered on the ground – safe and reliable, good to catch
✔ Ridden & competed by a junior – a true “mother’s dream”, English or western gear
✔ Confident hacking out alone or in company, gets along well with other horses
✔ Calm and settled in competition environments & warm-up areas
✔ Experience in beach riding, cowboy challenge, barrel racing (jackpots & rodeos), low-level jumping, mustering cattle & farm riding
✔ Floats fine & generally loads well (may occasionally need a bum rope)
✔ Fine on grass and safe to jump on after time off
Personality: Keen, clever, and affectionate once bonded with his person. Has the occasional spook (stops & looks) or pull-back if frightened, but these are uncommon and manageable.
Up-to-date WOF:
• Recent bodywork
• Teeth done under sedation
• Drenched
• Feet booked with the farrier
Scout is a sweet, well-rounded & reliable horse ready for his next partner.
