From stallion to gelding, from unsaddled to saddled, this year has brought big changes for Mateo. This handsome fella has made big strides (no pun intended) when it comes to being able to act appropriately around other horses, which has made spending time with him in the bustling arena productive and pleasant. His journey through the groundwork Red Book has been overall quite smooth, and subsequently resulted in a first saddling that was more of the same. He is definitely a fancy, playful mover when he’s feeling his oats, but he shows decorum, too, when asked. It’s been fun watching this ex-stud’s progress, and we look forward to having him going under saddle soon.
