Reg is the definition of an in-your-pocket gelding. Heโs the first one to greet you at the gate, happily soaks up all the love youโll give (especially if it comes with an animal cracker), and truly enjoys being someoneโs partner. The more time you spend with him, the more willing and connected he becomes.
Under saddle, Reg is an absolute blast. Heโs got that perfect, self-carrying motor โ not hot, not a kick ride, just a willing, tuned-in gelding who genuinely tries. He moves beautifully off the leg, and stays right where you put him. Heโs also super brave once he trusts you. Currently lightly schooling 2โ3โ with me, and previously jumping 2โ6โ with his former owner - heโs also developed a big interest in barrels, so whether you want to dabble in both worlds or pick a lane, heโs game.
On the ground, he is easy - He stands to be groomed and tacked, is great for the farrier, and is an easier keeper. Fully UTD on coggins, shots, farrier, and teeth. He currently wears fronts due to our rockier ground but was happily barefoot in a softer, sandier turnout previously.
Reg is happiest living out 24/7 or in a shed-row setup where he can keep tabs on his friends. He turns out quietly in a group or solo as long as he has a buddy within sight. He stands like a gentleman for blankets on/off and never makes you hike miles to catch him โ heโs always coming to you.
I can honestly say heโs been a joy to have in the program while we leg him back up. Heโs sweet, brave, fun to ride, and really doesnโt have a bad thing about him.
