Black Mustang gelding, about 6 yo, He came with a rope around his neck. I got him halter broke, saddled and bridled. I am too old to try to ride him. That's where you come in. He is well mannered around the barn, very smart. Would make a good jumper or barrel horse. $600.
It's hard to know, this could be a great deal or a quick trip to the hospital. How does this person know that this Mustang would make a good jumper or barrel horse? Does he clear the dutch doors on a regular basis? Hop over the fence and visit the neighbors' horses? And his barrel potential... does he demonstrate it by fading right and then levitating back left, smack into the person leading him?
Perhaps I'm too circumspect, after years of looking at inexpensive horses. There are definitely some diamonds in the rough out there, but it takes some looking. However, at least we know this horse does come with at least one valuable attribute: His own rope!
