Guy is a flashy, energetic chestnut gelding, 4 white socks and flaxen mane and tail. He stands 15h and is 15 yrs old.  He has a winning career as both a western (on the Morgan class A curcuit) and hunt seat pleasure/equitation horse on the East coast. Guy has started dressage training and shows great potential. Side passes, turns on the forehand/haunches, and leg yields. He has a nice head set, supple long neck, fluid gates, and all around good frame. He has lots of presence and tons of personality – the perfect horse for the confident rider. Guy trail rides, trailers, ties, clips and is excellent with the vet and farrier. Great feet – goes barefoot in the winter. Very clean in the stall and paddock. UTD vet/farrier.   Asking $5000.00 – email to mmance09@aol.com.

I moved my little morgan mare from saddleseat riding to huntseat riding.  I would like to switch her over to huntseat showmanship as well, but I’m not sure how its done.  How do morgans stand, do they stretch out or square up?  We mostly show open circuts and some 4-H shows because she is not full morgan, but i show her morgan because thats what she looks like.  Any help would be great!  Thanks!!!

Looking for a serious show horse? Six year old palomino Morgan mare. Looks and agility at its finest! Solid fifteen hands. Proven English Pleasure in show ring, currently trying out hunt to finish out the season. Beautiful gaits. Very people oriented. Email for more information. LauriEquine23@aol.com

Regrettably offered for sale due to student going to college. Will be shown until sold.

We all know that the hunter pleasure divison has seen a huge boom in entries and has become very popular among exhibitors and spectators.  Today we see a lot of saddle seat horses switch disciplines and go into the hunter pleasure division.  A lot of them do so very successfully.

I was wondering what trainers out there look for in a horse when they’re considering changing a horse to a hunter. What are conformation/movement/training,etc aspects that tell you that the horse is a good candidate for hunter pleasure.  When you see english/classic pleasure horses out there, what are some signs that tell you that the horse would be better suited as a hunter or would just make a killer hunter pleasure mount. 

Also, when you do decide to convert a saddleseat horse to a hunter; what are some of the aspects of training that have to go into that? What needs to be done in order for the horse to successfully transition?

I’m just very interested in this subject.  I ride in the hunter pleasure division and absolutely love it.  And I always find myself thinking, “I wonder how that horse would look as a hunter…”

Here is my gelding we have for sale.  Here is a short video of him under saddle and the rider is a new rider and just learining about 2 reins and draw reins so bare with her.  He goes very well and much quieter with a more confident rider.  He is offered for 5000 and is located in Northern Michigan.  He is current on coggins, vet and farrier.  Email me if you are interested.  melissarainey@charter.net  Thanks, Missy

Due to the threat of relocation with my job, I am forced to part with several nice horses.  There is something for everyone from an outstanding broodmare, a broke and shown 5 yr old western pleasure gelding, a 3yr old World Futurity nominated western pleasure gelding (going great under saddle), and a lovely well bred 2yr old filly western/hunt prospect.

DVD’s available on all, current pictures also available that are not on website, offers considered on some, as well as packaged deals available.

All horses are located in Guthrie, Oklahoma

I have gone to a lot of open shows recently and there is a lot of variety of classes so I was wondering what classes people would find interesting that we dont have now at the morgan A rated shows. These are a few that I have competed in and enjoyed:

Ranch Horse Trail

Halter- Western (I know we have sport horse and in hand, but not any western)

Showmanship 18 & Over

Equitation 18 & Over (with or without patterns, sometimes they are seperated)

I cant think of any others off the top of my head, I am sure there are more, but I just wanted to see what everyone thought…. Thanks
