Meet Santiago! This handsome guy was surrendered to Longmeadow in January 2021. When he arrived, Santiago was an intact stud that required a separate turn out from all other horses. He has since been castrated and is ready for his forever home. We have found that despite the castration, Santiago still believes he is a smooth talker with the ladies. At this time, we believe Santiago would do best with a home with private turn out, strictly mares, or submissive geldings.
We have evaluated Santiago under saddle and are very impressed with this handsome gelding. He stands tied, like a true gentleman, and accepts both the saddle and rider. It appears he has had some training. He is a level-headed horse and does not spook easily. He does have a stiff neck, which at times affects his steering under saddle.
We recommend Santiago as a light riding horse where he could enjoy slow strolls around your property at the walk and trot. This restriction is due to his age, conformation and arthritis. He is ridden regularly at the ranch and enjoys the attention. Santiago would do best with a solid, intermediate rider.
