Coolio
Coolio
Coolio is our resident Superstar. He is a 17y/o, 15.1hh QH cross. He has filled many shoes over the years, including being used for pony club, riding lessons, eventing, jumpers, dressage, mounted games, trail riding, chasing cows, and even once for the pony express race, at a Ranch Rodeo! Coolio is as steady as they come for new riders needing confidence, and goes right up to (safely) challenging competitive riders when they're ready. He was started by Tessa, and was her event horse for a number of years. He has evented up to training level, and was used for Tessa's 2018 clinic/ show season. He is ridden and shown primarily by Tessa's 5-year old daughter, Gabby.
