Gringo is a striking dun gelding with standout looks and impressive abilities. Featuring a black face, tiger-striped legs, a thick dorsal stripe, and a bulldog-style conformation, Gringo is as cowboy-looking as they come. He is the last colt we raised sired by our stud, Lil Ruf Catalyst, a 6-time AQHA World Champion. Versatile and eager to please, Gringo excels in reining and cowhorse maneuvers, boasting easy lead changes, solid spins, and stylish sliding stops. He has a natural low head set and smooth gaits, including a rocking chair lope and ground covering long trot, that make him a pleasure to ride. He neck reins easily with great direction and will go right where you send him. Gringo is experienced in all types of cow work, including cutting, boxing, and roping. His natural cow sense and working style are complemented by his calm, quiet demeanor. He’s been roped on in the pasture, steer stopped out of the box, and roped the sled, showcasing great rate and timing. Having ridden countless miles across diverse terrains, from the north Texas ranch to the Arizona desert, Gringo handles rocky mountains, rivers, mud, brush, and cactus with ease. He easily side passes to open gates, navigates obstacles, and drags objects without hesitation. Ground manners are excellent; Gringo remains calm and reliable in all situations, from noisy traffic to wildlife encounters. Gringo is an ideal candidate for Ranch Versatility, Ranch Riding, and Cowhorse events. His distinctive, ranchy look and gentle nature make him a standout choice for both competitive events and recreational activities. Gringo is a talented gelding ready to excel in any direction you choose. We have owned Gringo for several years and is utd on dental, shoeing, vaccines and comes with a current, clean bill of health and soundness. Gringo is offered on HorseBid.com online auction.
