2020 Palomino AQHA Gelding

14.3 HH

Smoldering good looks, flawless conformation, flowing mane and tail… oh la la! Allow me to introduce you to “Falco!” With an affectionate personality plus his talent… he’s the TOTAL PACKAGE! He has been my number one go to horse for almost three years; whenever I need a guaranteed fun, carefree ride, I go catch Falco!

With his inquisitive nature, and willing disposition, he makes you feel like an expert when you introduce him to new things. You would have never guessed it was his first time in the branding pen! It’s a hectic scene with people going every direction, the fire, the smoke, the loud mammas, but Falco was unfazed! The same response applied for the first time over jumps, the first time down the trails, the first time at a show or team roping, you name it. 

My favorite feature though has to be how comfortable he is in his own skin! His herd instinct is dialed way down, so he can go boldly by himself anywhere. It does not bother him at all to be left behind. Truth is he thinks more like a human than a horse which makes him the perfect companion!

He is a downright captivating with his babydoll face, big brown eyes and smooth lines, everything fits together so perfectly! Hands down, you can’t beat his effortless transitions! He is so good leaded and can collect himself to lope in the palm of your hand, or go ahead and push his stride out to cover some ground, your choice.   

In the show pen, success comes easy for him… In his first three outings he won over $2,000 with me, and a buckle with Teagan! We like those odds! He settles in immediately and acts like he’s seen it all. And talk about an incredible mover! It’s impossible to look past him, THAT LOPE is like nothing you’ve seen! Let’s just say he makes you feel like a million bucks out in the show ring… prepare to make your friends jealous!

Sired by SHINE CHIC SHINE, whose lifetime earning equal $148,714 and sire of over $2,000,000 in earnings, it’s no wonder Falco is so talented. He has all the reining maneuvers, so if that’s your jam, he’s ready. Smooth flying lead changes, correct spins and a strong topline make him just as easy on the eyes while he’s in motion as he is standing still. 

He’s not limited to the western saddle, he will float around with the hunt seat saddle on. Keep him bridled up, or drape your reins, he can go either way.  Send him over the jumps or down the fence to turn a cow, Falco can do it all. 

Please reach out with any questions you may have on this beautiful boy.
