Additional Comments

"G2" is exactly what we've been breeding for. He has a wonderful disposition: kind, friendly and respectful. From birth, he demonstrated a keen intelligence and strong desire to please that I love so much about his sire. He also has the larger bone structure that I love about his dam. G2 has a true running walk with a great backend. He will walk and shake at both the flatwalk and running walk or you can tighten him up and do a smooth, sailing saddle gait with considerable speed.... (read more) He does these gaits naturally and has never even worn a shoe at this point. He also has a beautiful canter. He truly represents the versatility that the original walking horse was bred for. He is competitive in shows and still a comfortable, smooth and sane mount for trails or field trials. He stands 15.2 1/2h at 3 years of age and measures to be about 16 hands when fully mature. So the barn name "Little Gambler" is a bit of a misnomer as he's larger than his sire in height and bone. Color possibilities: He is heterozygous for black (Ee) and cream (Cr-) and homozygous for the agouti (AA). That gives him the same color possibilities that he sire has. He will never throw a black, smokey black or smokey cream foal. Black/Bay/Chestnut mares: chestnut, bay, palomino, and buckskin foals. Smokey Black/Buckskin/Palomino mares: chestnut, bay, palomino, buckskin, cremello, or perlino foals. Smokey Cream/Perlino/Cremello mares: palomino, buckskin, cremello, or perlino foals. Classic/Amber/Gold champagne mares: chestnut, bay, palomino, buckskin, amber, gold, gold cream, or amber cream foals. Standing in Hoffman, NC for 2022.
