Blaze is one of the finest gaited mares you will ever find, blaze will work or ride, she has plowed quite a few gardens. She will go where ever you point her to go, if you wanna go through a briar thicket blaze will sure take you through it, she's up for sale by no fault of hers, we have to many horses and running out of room for her, my husband rides her every where & my 13 year old son does as well, she's as round as she is tall, as of now she has shoes all away around, anything could happen and she lose one before I get out to see but as of now she has all 4, she will park out for you to get on and off of her, if you like showing gaited horses she would be the one for you she is stylish, for us we are more AQH people & like the barrels and pole bendings.. don't miss your chance on getting a dandy!!
