HD FIRST STARLIGHT

"Merida" is a super cool, good-minded filly with just over 60 days riding with Shoudi Crosby—but you’d swear she’s had a full year on her. She is incredibly quiet, sensible, and not the spooky type. This kind, willing prospect is ready to go in any direction!

​

I believe she would excel as a ranch rider, low-level cow horse, or rope horse—your options are endless. She naturally draws to a stop, picks up both leads, lopes nice circles, and has a solid foundation in her turnarounds. She rides out alone or in a group, hauls well, and drinks on the road. There’s no nonsense with this filly—she’s fully ready for a job. It's hard to find papered prospects that are riding this well for under 10k anymore!

Merida is by a son of Travalena (NCHA $105,000) and out of a race-bred/foundation-type mare. Long-term, she’ll make a great outcross for a rope horse program after you’ve won on her!
