Re: [RC] Older Horses - newly gelded - heidi

We are looking at a 19 year old gelding for our daughter. The lady wants
 him to have a more active home because they don't have time for him
anymore. With his show & pedigree background he is a very nice horse.
Our only drawback is that he has been used as a stud and was just gelded
 last year. What are everyone's thoughts on this? I'm not worried about
my daughter being able to handle him - she handles our studs all the
time, but I'm still skeptical about his being "behaved" while riding
with a group of horses.

I'd say that the odds are overwhelmingly in favor of him being just
fine--I'd just suggest taking him on his individual merit, and judging him
accordingly.

Heidi
