For Sale: Nine year old registered Paint gelding, about 15.2 hands tall, all black except for a little white on a hind pastern. Very gentle, easy to catch, friendly, no known vices. Wormed a week ago. Has really perfect ground manners, does not get excited or worried when away from the other horses, so calm and easy to handle.

I got this gelding from my brother, where he had been out to pasture for two years. He had sixty days' riding before my brother bought him, but has not been ridden over the past two years so I consider him green broke. Easy to ride, doesn't seem to like the bit so might do best in a bosal or hackamore. I've been riding him in just a halter, no issues whatsoever. He carries his head well beneath his withers when ridden, and moves very slowly. Might be a Western Pleasure prospect or a nice trail horse. He is happy to ride away from his buddy and doesn't seem to mind anything we've done with him. Goes out through the fields alone very calmly and happily, and I'm certain he would be perfect on trails. Riding him daily and will continue training him until sold. This horse is not for a beginner rider, not because of anything bad he's done, but because I don't feel he is experienced enough to be safe for a beginner.

Has APHA papers. Asking $2000 OBO. Open to offers, will take less if I know he is going to the perfect home.
