Maverick

Maverick is a 5-year-old black grade gelding (Friesian/Quarter Horse cross) standing 15.2hh and weighing around 1200 lbs, located in Ingram, Texas. He has been started correctly on ranch work: pushing and sorting cattle at a feedyard, started roping and doctoring, and extensive trail riding including crossing water and riding in traffic. The listing describes a quiet, willing gelding with no history of bucking, rearing, biting, kicking, or bolting, good ground manners, easy for the farrier, and easy to load and tie. He's reportedly been ridden by advanced beginners and up, has a smooth trot and rocking-horse lope, stops easily, and is correct on both leads. Photos show a tall, striking black horse with heavy bone and a Friesian-type head, being ridden both in the arena working cattle and out on trail in water. Asking $15,000, vet checks welcomed, and delivery is available anywhere in the US.
