Under Saddle
Honcho can be ridden either English or Western. He is responsive to leg / seat aids, stops off your seat and moves off your leg. Honcho has a solid start to shoulders-in, haunches-in, leg yielding, turn on the haunches, collection and gait extensions! He'll happily flat-foot walk on a loose rein, GAITS NATURALLY, canters and is great with his leads. He rides in a simple, smooth snaffle.
Honcho has been enjoyed as a family / pleasure type horse, but with his solid dressage foundation, he could absolutely step into NWHA Gaited Dressage
Training Level and clean up! He has such a bright presence, that judges would adore him! Plus, since he’s schooling 1st and 2nd
level movements, moving up the levels would be a natural progression for him.He's ready to show and win in either NWHA Traditional Dressage tests or Western Dressage.
Honcho is certainly not limited to a dressage rider / career. His responsiveness and training can be appreciated in any discipline!

On the Trail
Honcho is a blast on trails! He rides good in the woods or a wide open field. He can go out alone or with a group. He does not get excited by other horses. He'll cross trail obstacles, logs, ground poles and water. You can open gates from his back too! He stays relaxed navigating hills and doesn't rush his rider. Owners trail ride him on-property, so he doesn't have a lot of offsite experience, but this guy is trusting, willing and trainable. He is the ultimate pleasure or show horse!
Around the Barn
Honcho
has EXCELLENT barn manners and is a perfect gentleman.
He is such a doll! Honcho is quite the people pleaser
and LOVES attention. He’s sweet, in-your-pocket (but not pushy) and he
just adores everyone. Honcho has no bad habits or vices. He can be stalled
or pastured. Good for baths, saddling, bridling, stands tied without
pulling back, loads / unloads from the trailer without issue, easy to
catch. He lunges W/RW/C. Used to dogs and is the middle-man in the
herd.

More About Honcho
Honcho is a sweet, loveable and talented gelding! He is LOADS of fun to ride, but he is not a beginners horse. He has a sensitive nature and therefore perfect for an intermediate rider.
Honcho is ONLY for sale because owner can no longer ride due
to medical reasons. Honcho has been a
wonderful family horse, bringing a lot of joy and happiness to his owner. This was a hard and very sad decision for
them, so this is an extraordinary opportunity to buy such a wonderful horse who
otherwise would never be listed for sale!
