Sunshine In the Shadows
Here is a shot of Ice, a three year old colt that we have for sale. His father is Cherokee Boogie, of Karma Farms breeding, and his mother is a modern mare. He is blue eyed, sweet natured and very affectionate. Ice has been primarly trained by KC and is ridden several hours each week. He goes where asked, through water,in heavy brush, over fallen tree trunks.
He ambles with deep Spanish strides. He is a bit tall. I fear that he might reach 15 hands when fully grown. But for that excessive height, he is a first rate colt.

AHHH! I love heights! And he is first rate!
Emily Broke, him, then I just rode Him a lot, then Abby showed up and turned him from a great horse to a Super great horse
Ice looks to have good Spanish type despite his large size. Very nice movement too.
KC.... "Just rode him alot"????
You are not giving yourself credit where credit is due! HOURS on a horse in addition to breaking/ training is exactly what makes the difference between a horse that is safe and one that is not...one that people want or do not want. Your courage made ICE what he is !!!
