APHA registered to gelding. Was told by the owners he was started roped off but only used him for trail rides, lessons, and hauling to fun shows for the kids. has done it all, and seen it all. Traffic safe, dog/cattle/goat/pig safe in the pasture, good with mares or geldings. Loves to be bathed, stands for mount/dismount, has SUPER SMOOTH gaits (w/t/c), and has no buck/rear/kick in him. has sat for months and pulled out, and rides off the same. Ground manners are great and he can be in hot wire or wood fencing. this guy is on the lazier side and any age/class of rider can get on him. You don’t have to hold him for the farrier since he just stands there himself! Cinch has not been riding English and I would prefer for him to go to a western discipline home because I can not guarantee he will enjoy it. He likes to be ridden on a loose rein and has a very soft face. Cinch has ONE VICE which after having some nasty sunburn on his nose, is healthy to you rubbing him on his lower muzzle but is still easy to bridle and will take a bit with no problem.
