“Waylon” Ramblin’ Man

2020 14.1hh Red Roan AQHA-cross Gelding

Waylon is balanced, talented, fun, and ready to have an incredible career.

Currently in a classical dressage and jumping program, he is soaring through the foundations (and some more advanced concepts) with ease. He is powerful and floaty in a small package.

Waylon is easy to handle, and has a great mind. He absorbs new information like a sponge, and is always ready and willing to learn.

Currently, Waylon is jumping 2’-2’3” courses and combinations with tons of scope for more, and has a green clean lead change. He is also schooling serpentines, leg yield, shoulder-in, raised poles, and transitions. He works in-hand very well, and seems to enjoy it immensely.

Waylon has a big, swinging walk, a floaty trot, and balanced canter.

He would be suited for an AA or JR/YR in a program or a professional who wants a special young pony to develop.

He would excel in the hunters, pony jumpers, or dressage.

Located in Milford, MI (25 minutes north of DTW)
