Hans as we call him, is a home grown horse. He is very well broke, safe and very athletic with a big motor and HUGE stop. This little horse doesn’t know he’s little, he has so much heart and try. This guy is not just a very talented horse, he has years of training in wide variety of situations. He’s been ridden on the ranch, been roped off in the branding pen and has been shown in reining and was the SRHA Freestyle Reining Champion in 2021 with his bridleless run. He will go anywhere he’s pointed. He’s easy to catch, great manners and can be left off for months.
Sold in fall of 2022 for $25,000
