Horses for Sale - Started Under Saddle

Here's an outstanding young gelding!  He was started as a two year old at Ken McNabb's Natural Horsemanship Clinic in Wyoming, and ridden here at the ranch the following summer.  He recently came home from sixty days with our trainer and he's ready to start a new career. He's good looking, has a fantastic pedigree, is riding great, and has the disposition to be an exceptional individual. Look through his pedigree..........every horse in it is either a World Champion, race winner or a producer of race winners, so the speed is there, and we know he has the mind and ability.   He's safe and sane to be around, has no bad habits that I'm aware of, ties, hauls, shoes, trims etc. with no problems.  He side passes, backs, has a good stop, responds to leg pressure nicely, picks up his leads, loads, hauls.  UTD on everything!  If you're looking for a great prospect for the new season......here he is. He's ready for you to get on him and go on with his training.  Sold, thank you Randy and Laura Gray.  Big Shot will be competing north of the border in the future. 

This big and beautifully made gorgeous gelding is just about as nice as he can be..a very bright sorrel with the lightest flaxen mane and tail is only part of the picture....first of all, he's going to mature well over 16 hands, secondly, he has a pedigree stacked with winners, and, last, but not least, he's training just the way we thought he would.  His flashy color and common sense disposition are certainly an added incentive to look him over.  Up close in his family you'll find World Champions, leading dams and sires, APHA World Show winning sires and more!  Currently at the trainers, he's being started over small jumps and prepared for his career.  He has a naturally correct headset, a flat kneed way of moving, and the desire to do things right.  He's an easy keeper as the pictures below portray.....that's him in his everyday condition out on dry summer pasture.   His sire, Big Country, a race winner himself, is siring good minded athletic performance horses.  The grandsire, Star Look, was a multiple World Champion runner whose career was cut short by his untimely death as a very young horse.  Of course, Easy Jet, Easy Country Music and Indian Music helped to write racing history.  Indians Image and Cherokee Indian are legendary sires of rope, race, and winning performance individuals.......and Spotted Bar Bull graces the pedigrees of many many speed and performance Quarter Horses as well.  This young gelding is training perfectly,,,,no buck, no bad behavior....just a good work ethic and willing performance ability bred right into this guy!

UPDATE: He's started over low jumps and he loves it!!!,,,,,video available.

Tiny has been sold and he's going to Canada!!  Thank you Randy and Laura Gray!

Here's the prospect you've been looking for!  His daddy's a ROM Heading and Heeling horse, ROM Race, and has points in Steer Stopping. He was also Idaho State Champion Heading and Heeling horse!  Western Native is an undefeated World Champion Race Horse, & Shawne Bug, one of the greatest AQHA sires of speed and performance. The bottom side of his pedigree features some of all time greatest rope horses in Paint history..........you can't go wrong with this good colt. Tru Bruiser is an APHA World and Congress Champion sire as well as the sire of the all time leading point earner in Paint performance history, A Tru Rolex.  Painted Tru Tru was ROM Heading, Heeling, & Race, as well as an APHA World and Congress Champion Sire.  Lily Quadrille was a World Champion in Breakaway Roping, Goat Tying, and Reserve World Champion Pole Bending competitor; she also had ROMs in Goat Tying and Pole Bending.

Ima Western Bug has been started using natural horsemanship methods.  He's a great colt, no buck, no hassles.........he's come along really nicely this far and is ready for a new home.  Don't overlook him as a barrel prospect......Western Bugs is also a solid 1-D barrel sire!!  This colt would be an incredibly nice competitor for the APHA show circuit.  He's very good looking and has a quiet and kind disposition. He should mature around 15.2 hands.

Sold!!  Watch for this good gelding in the futurities in Minnesota in 2009! Thank you Stacey!

Pictures soon.

This is the first foal out of a very tall (16 + hands), well muscled, beautiful moving, quiet and kind TB dam.  He’s a pretty mover, flat kneed, smart and  especially enjoys “people attention.”   He’s absolutely correct with a long slim neck, big hip, gorgeous tiny head with big soft eyes.   Take a look through his pedigree……it’s filled with winning performance/race  horses and we’re confident that Skeeter’s capable of following the family tradition.  Just home from thirty days of light riding, he's nicely started......kind, gentle, and a nice nice athlete.  He's quick, has great ground manners, will walk, trot, canter in circles both directions, backs, load, haul, tie and all the rest of the things you'd like a young horse to do well.  He represents winning bloodlines and World Champions in both speedbred horses and cowbreds.....and exhibits the best qualities of both.  This is a nice colt! 

Skeeter has been sold and he'll be going to Canada as well.  Thank you Randy and Laura Gray!

Our fabulous homozygous daughter of Western Bugs produced exactly what we’d hoped for in her first foal…….a palomino tobiano performance prospect deluxe!  He carries the bloodlines of history making Paints and Quarter Horses…….Western Native, undefeated 3x World Champion,  Western Music, one of the ‘blue hens’ of the Paint industry, Shawne Bug AQHA leading sire, Painted Tru Tru  proven performance horse and sire of Champions, Premium Sugar Bars AQHA Superior Performance, Premium Skip AQHA Champion, Hollywood Smoke AQHA World Show finalist and sire of Performance Champions, and Mr. Gun Smoke NRCHA Hall of Fame, and Tru Bruiser sire of Multiple Performance and Halter Champions.  That might be enough said about pedigree!!

Glitter Bugs spent 30 days with our trainer and is scheduled to return to training early in 2008.  This is a colt with loads of natural ability, a great mind, no buck or bad behavior........he's ready to move on to a career. Price is negotiable to a show or competition home.
