16.2 hands. He last worked on 2/29/24 and retired with small OCD ankle chips. We do have x-rays. He has a small amount of arthritis in his left stifle.
!!! ADOPTED !!!
Promise is a kind and easy going gelding with a quiet demeanor. He settled in nicely to our farm and is on full turnout with other geldings. He is respectful of his handlers and enjoyed being groomed. He stands quietly in his stall and doesn’t bother anyone.
He is a cribber but it is controlled with a strap.
Promise stands well for the vet and farrier. He enjoys being groomed and stands quietly. Bonus info: he stands great for pictures!
He did well on his first ride, but he will need an intermediate level and up type rider at this time. He is forward at the trot and canter and listens well to queues. A sensible fellow, he should excel in his next job.
He is weak in his hind end and will benefit from regular rides and hill work.
