Additional Comments
Romeo is a very well broke ranch gelding that anyone would LOVE to ride. He has been used on a ranch to pen and sort cattle, pushed cattle onto trailers and be the riding partner for the grandkids. He rides with a loose one hand neck rein, has a good backup, and stop. He is very smooth at the walk, trot, and canter. He is the same whether ridden every day or once a week, you don't have to warm him up, just get on him and go.
Romeo has no problem with you carrying a flag, opening/closing gates, he will walk down streams, and over fallen trees, he will walk over plastic bottles and wooden steps in our obstacle course, he is used to large Kabota tractor that on the ranch, we have trails with bridges and he has no problem going over them.... (read more) He has no problem walking up/down steep ditches and ravines, he will go anywhere you point him, in the arrena, through thick brush, in the woods with no spook.
He stands still for the vet/farrier, while being saddled/bridled, clipped, groomed, being sprayed for flies, putting on a fly mask, picking his feet, being mounted (from the ground or a mounting block and from either side), while standing tied, he loads well and hauls well. He is easy to catch, is very gentle, and has great ground manners. He is kid and dog friendly (we have 4 dogs) and gets along with all of our other horses, mares, and geldings alike.
He would be a great prospect for; ranch sorting team, team penning, play days, drill team, barrels, poles, grand entry, parades, trail riding, trail competitions, queens contest, walk-trot, lead line, 4H/FFA, or as a lesson horse. He would make an excellent all around family horse, well broke for mom and dad to enjoy, and easygoing for the kids to learn on. He is pretty quiet for his age and has the demeanor of a much older horse, he will teach you or your kids to be a hand and can grow up with them.
Romeo is a beautiful bay roan solid built gelding standing 15.3 hands high with a pretty head, a handsome face, and a kind eye. He has good conformation, a strong neck, nice withers, a straight back, a wide chest, and hip. If you want a young horse that has been started right, with a great disposition, here he is!!! He is calm and forgiving, has a good mind and learns quickly, and is smart enough to learn any type of job.
He will fit the novice or the pro. He is a really nice horse and has a great personality. DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS ONE!!!! He sells sound, safe, and sane with no stable vices. Please no outside trades, deposits, or payment plans. First come, first serve.
