Sandman

Sandman is the total package—a 2020 model AQHA gelding standing at the perfect size of 14.2 hands. With his correct conformation, shiny black mane and tail, and a small white star and snip, he is as eye-catching as he is talented. Whether you are looking for a partner on the trail, in the show pen, ranch riding, or simply a forever friend, Sandman fits the bill. He is bred to perform, being an own son of Sannman (over $200,000 in earnings and $3 million in offspring earnings) and tracing back to Hall of Fame sires Metallic Cat and Smart Little Lena on the top side. His bottom side is just as impressive, going back to the legendary Peptoboonsmal, a Hall of Famer with over $28 million in offspring earnings. Sandman has the looks, pedigree, and the brains to match. He has a bright eye, a willing “in your pocket” attitude, and has truly “been there, done that.” He has been used to check cows, ride fence lines, and moving cattle. Out on the trails, he is steady and confident—crossing creeks, riding through water, going uphill and downhill, and stepping over logs without hesitation. He is traffic safe on state roads, rides inside the arena or outside on the ranch, and takes everything in stride. In the arena, Sandman is a handy and versatile partner. He knows his leads, has a nice one-handed neck rein, correct lead changes, a good spin, a solid stop, and will even side pass right up to the gate for you. He has also been ridden bareback and bridle less, proving his willingness and trust. Whether you want to show him in reining or cow events one day or let the kids enjoy him on a weekend trail ride the next, he is safe and dependable for kids, seniors, or advanced riders alike. Sandman has three smooth gaits you will love to ride, an easy walk, a nice jog, an extended trot, and a lope you can sit on all day. He does not need to be ridden every day to stay good; he is the same horse whether he has ridden once a week or once a month. In the barn and pasture, Sandman is a real charmer. He is good for the farrier, stands in the wash bay, and absolutely loves attention. This gelding has the talent, bloodlines, and personality to be your forever partner—whether in the show pen, out on the ranch, or as the one you trust with the whole family.
