Hip #99 Meet Murphy — a stunning 3-year-old half-draft gelding with the looks, build, and temperament to turn heads wherever he goes. Standing a solid 15 hands and weighing in at 1,100 lbs, he offers the perfect combination of strength, athleticism, and rideability.
Murphy is truly a pleasure to ride. He’s been ridden extensively both in the arena and out on the trails, giving him a well-rounded foundation that makes him dependable and enjoyable in a variety of settings. Whether you’re looking for a steady partner for relaxed trail rides or a willing horse to continue developing in the arena, Murphy is ready to step up.
He has a kind disposition, a willing attitude, and handles like a seasoned horse beyond his years. All the hard work has already been put into him — now he’s ready for someone to take the reins and enjoy the ride.
If you’re searching for a versatile, eye-catching gelding with a great mind and a solid start, Murphy checks all the boxes.

A little care goes a long way ✨

Taking care of your F10 saddle pads helps them last even longer. We recommend cleaning them every week or every other week to keep them looking fresh and performing their best.

These pads are built to be durable and dependable—designed to go the distance ride after ride. A quick clean now and then keeps them ready for whatever the next ride brings. 🐎🧼

There’s nothing quite like the excitement of a big box arriving from UPS—especially when it holds something this special.

About a month ago, we purchased our first saddle from Slaton Saddles, and the craftsmanship immediately stood out. The leather quality, attention to detail, and overall build are truly top notch.

Yesterday, JD received his second saddle, and the excitement hasn’t worn off. He’s looking forward to putting it to work. When you find gear that combines quality, durability, and craftsmanship, it makes all the difference.

Looking forward to many miles in the saddle ahead. Thank you, Slaton Saddles, for producing such outstanding work.

F10 pads are engineered with advanced materials and innovative construction that allow them to conform immediately — no traditional break-in period required. From the very first ride, you get balanced support, even pressure distribution, and a secure fit.

This is why we stand behind F10.

Less waiting. More riding.
Performance from day one.
