Rip Romp Terry a.k.a. "Blue Sage"~ 2010 Blue Roan AQHA gelding. 14.3+1/2".

One of the fanciest, silvery-ist blue roans you will ever see. Willing, reliable, responsive with a great work ethic this guy has it all. Started right as a 2 yr old, he has tons of potential to go many directions.

Abi's favorite to use starting colts in the roundpen, he getts into his work and enjoys it.  Great to pony colts off of, doesn't mind being pushed & pulled around & will push right back and keep walking straight. Great on trails, drives, pasture riding.
He will carry anything that you can hold on top of him. He neckreins, sidepasses, backs, and is safe anywhere. Never bucked, steady minded, not spooky. Video of cow work this spring!

New Video! Covering a range of subjects.

 

Sold! Congrats to Josh & Laura!

We've had “Shorty” since he was a baby, he has never offered to buck, saddle him up in any kind of weather or after time off & he is the same easy going fellow.

We have no doubt Shorty will be the same. Saddle up & ride off any time & be completely safe. Opens gates, stump mounts, all dark feet, good bone, 100% sound. Good horse to have guests ride, he is good natured & will have a tolerance for rider mistakes. Call us & visit!
