Merlin

Merlin is a 7-year-old (2019) Argentine Criollo cross gelding standing 14.1 hands and weighing about 950 lbs, a roan with a sensible, sensitive, forward-thinking disposition. Over the past 10 months he's been building confidence and skills through varied ranch work: serving as a saddle horse for flagging and working other horses, dragging tires and logs, riding out on the trail, checking cows, tarp work, and rope work. The photos show him calmly working around a tarp and cowboy curtain with a rider dressed in western tack, and loping comfortably in an arena with a rope on the saddle. He's based in Simla, Colorado and listed at $10,000.
