CLEAR SPRINGS BANDIT

Coming to you as the picture dream horses are made of! Clear Springs Bandit (aka Hughey), is a phenomenal 7 year old Gypsy Vanner gelding with partial blue eyes! He stands an impressive and solid 15.1 hands and weighs 1400 lbs. Hughey is by King of the Forrest Gypsies, a world and reserve champion stallion imported from Holland. His grand sire, Forrest, is a multiple grand champion. Hughey is bred to be great minded, family friendly, and have the talent, ability, and desired gypsy traits to perform well at breed shows. Hughey, as is typical of the gypsy breed, is extremely friendly, in your pocket, and the type of horse that any person can get along with. He is exceptionally good natured and LOVES his scratches. Don’t worry about treats for him, scratches will make him the happiest. Hughey has a long, flowing mane that has grown over 12 inches in the past year alone. His tail is thick and full and drags the ground unless trimmed. His feathers are silky and light while being full and thick. Hughey is the easiest of horses to ride. He has a solid stop and will put tracks in the ground a few feet long if asked. He has flying lead changes and his lead departures are automatic and flawless. He will ride both English and western. He will pop over a cross rail and neck rein. He has been hauled to numerous trails and other arenas and he always steps out of the trailer without any kind of fuss and rides off quietly. He enjoys trail rides in the mountains and will cross water, logs, bridges, or even man made obstacles. He has been thoroughly exposed to having a rope swung on and around him. Desensitized to tarps, flags and dresses. He has been ridden throughout traffic and has seen wildlife. Nothing has phased Hughey and we couldn’t be more proud of the horse we are offering. He is the epitome of a family friendly gypsy horse and will fit any kind of program or home. Please contact Adrieen Staudinger of Ricochet Stables with any additional questions, 479-685-5020.
