Crimson

Crimson is a 12-year-old, 14.3-hand red roan APHA Paint gelding out of Longhorn Ranch in Paicines, California, being offered through the Platinum Equine online auction (bidding open through September 13, 2026). Described as gentle, forgiving and easy to ride, he neck reins, lopes both leads, stops and backs, and has real ranch miles: gathering cattle, checking fences, and working through obstacles like flags, tarps, and water crossings. He's equally solid on the trail over varied terrain, and easy on the ground: loads, hauls, ties, bathes, and adapts well to stall or pasture living. The photos show a good-bodied, well-mannered roan gelding being ridden calmly under saddle and jumping small fences with a rider, suggesting a versatile, all-around temperament suited to beginner through experienced riders.
