2021 AQHA Gelding

14 HH

Looking for your special partner? This big hipped gelding comes in the cutest package. Cruz is a true delight and you’ll love every minute you spend with him. Calm kind, versatile and built to last, this 5 yr old gelding will get you noticed wherever you go. Cruz is 14 HH that perfect handy size, but with a big horse feel because of his solid build. Solid on the ranch and trails, started well on the heel side and breakaway, and exposed to the show pen proves his versatility as does his pedigree.

City chaos or ranch commotion Cruz stays cool calm and collected. As steady in town traffic as he is on the trails, he has a ranch heart and a rock solid mind. You can trust him in real world chaos as much as you can on the quiet trails. Alone or in a group he is happy and confident. He will confidently lead the way or happily follow behind. Cruz has been trail ridden in the hills and the desert. He has ponied kiddos along behind on their ponies or toted them on board with me. Trustworthy and solid. Cruz has a lot of heart and try. He has been extensively ranched on, dragging calves to the fire, doctoring calves in the pastures, sorting and pushing cows.

Cruz is strong and quick to a cow, loves his job and is just plain fun to rope on in the pasture or the arena. He is well started on the heel side. He’s quiet in the box, rates cattle good, has plenty of speed and a good stop. Also started in the breakaway, runs to cattle hard and gives you a good shot. He is a pleasure to ride in the arena and side passes easily, has some beautiful spins, nice lope departures and a solid stop. His gaits are easy and smooth with great transitions and an easy one handed neck rein. All his experiences have made him a well rounded individual and his disposition makes him a nice user friendly partner willing to match your level.

Enjoy Cruz wherever you please, the ranch, road, trails, town, he rides calm and quiet, and is good with busy traffic, motorcycles, strollers, wagons, and crowds. Great crossing bridges, streams, rocks and sure footed and confident on any terrain. He is good with obstacles, dragging logs, crazy dogs, loud noises, has a carried a flag and easy to open gates on. He loves being groomed, bathed, is great for the farrier, trailers like a champ and is the kindest old soul. Cruz’s combination of talent, versatility, and gentle disposition make him an outstanding partner for riders of all levels looking for a reliable and hardworking horse.
Whether you’re chasing cattle, roping with friends, or exploring the backcountry, he’s ready to give you years of trusted service. A gorgeous, broke gelding with his entire life ahead of him ready to make your dreams come true!

Sarah Moreland of S Lazy M Ranch in western SD has always had a passion for training horses. She started training horses for the public at 15 yrs old and her husband Seth and children Sterling and Cedar still train horses and ranch in Red Owl, SD.
"I grew up on horseback since I was a little girl and still live, love and breathe horses every day. We love starting colts, making good solid performance horses and our ranch is a great place to get that solid foundation that every horse needs. Spring ranch work with all the branding is a highlight along with all the summer and fall cattle work. I love all that the ranch provides for these horses but training time in the arena and taking them to town is important too. I enjoy showing cow horse and AQHA Ranch Versatility as well as training and running barrel horses. I'm loving getting into the breakaway roping as well.
My passion is to train and provide well rounded, gentle, solid, quality performance horses that anyone can go on with and enjoy. We all have a part in making these horses, including our young children who provide lots of desensitizing at this point, and I'm blessed to get to call this my job and to raise our children in this lifestyle, doing what we love."
