“These assessments are based on how these horses respond in their current environment and any change in their current environment, riders, diet, etc could have an effect on the horses' immediate performance. Horses need time to adjust when moved to new surroundings. We highly recommend you visit, spend time with the equines and evaluate the equine before making a decision"

Explain overall training:  Beau has had no riding training except tacking up but he is intelligent and cooperative.  Beau should be easy to train.  He is stout but probably will not be very tall so he would be suited for a light adult.  His gait is beautiful and he should make some lucky person a good riding horse once trained. 

 

Explain history if known:  Seized due to neglect with his mother “Chulita” and two other horses.
