Additional Comments

In early spring of 2024 "Ragnar" as he has become known here at the farm arrived. Our friends at Lucasia Ranch inspected colts from 2023 and sent us a good one to take to the summer shows in the states for the 2024 season. This confident and attractive colt is going to make someone a fantastic partner in any future endeavor! Ragnar currently measures 16.3 and is expected to mature at or near 18hh. He has a very serious work ethic and loves to have something new to do during his lessons.... (read more) He has received age-appropriate lessons in body control (yielding shoulders/hips, backing, isolating movement to a single leg, sidestepping, etc) and has been introduced to lunging, in addition to taking walks around the property to inspect new sights. He has good stall manners, stands calmly tied (both straight or in crossties) is good for clipping and bathing and wrapping/handling legs. Ragnar is very adjustable in his gaits - if you are looking for a horse who can generate a big, powerful trot and then gear back to a slow, effortless jog and then step into a fluid and soft canter, this is a colt to consider.  He is going to be a serious competitor in both under saddle and driven events as a mature horse. While he is not as laid back as some, he is very smart and fun to work with each day; he loves having some new skill and having his people work with him!

He competed at halter this summer, placing 3rd at the National Percheron Show and finishing his season with rsv Champion stallion at LaPorte last weekend.

As with all our prospects, we would consider offers on Ragnar to find him the perfect situation!
