Holly is 14.3 mare that is used as a tail rider and she does very well at it. Crosses most anything, from water, logs, and ditches she will do it as long as her rider is confident she'll do it. Would be suited for western pleasure also. Has a nice smooth slow trot and a nice easy canter, but she can get up and go if you ask her to. Come out and ride her for yourself I'm sure you'll be pleased. She stand for the vet, farrier, grooming, clipping and bathing.
