Description:
Astrid, a gorgeous palomino gelding sired by GUNS R FOR SHOOTIN, boasts an impressive lineage with foals earning a combined $418,938 and a personal LTE of $114,124. Beyond his pedigree, Astrid captivates with his show-stopping presence, combining beauty, kindness, and a gentle disposition that endears him like a puppy dog.

This exceptional gelding is not just a visual delight but also a marvel in training—smooth, phenomenally trained, and remarkably easy to ride. Astrid’s versatility extends beyond the arena; he excels in basic ranch chores, displaying a keen sense of cattle work with a smart and sane demeanor. His adaptability is evident as even a 6-year-old can confidently ride him for a reining lesson or a scenic journey through Palo Duro Canyon, easily crossing water, logs, rocky terrain, and staying quiet around traffic and machinery. Astrid is safe with gunfire and fireworks as well. He is without a doubt one of the safest and best minded horses we have had the pleasure of owning.

Astrid is commonly described as an "old soul," he exudes a quiet friendly personality, unfazed by external stimuli, making him the ideal equine companion that delights in being a friend and partner. Riding Astrid with nothing but a string around his neck showcases his solid obedience and calm nature, distinguishing him as one of the gentlest and brokest geldings.

Trained in reining, Astrid currently excels in various classes, including ranch riding, trail, and ranch horse pleasure. His versatility makes him suitable for riders of all levels, from complete novices to seasoned showmen. With an elegant way of moving, from a sweet jog to a stylish extended trot and beautiful circles, Astrid’s standout feature lies in his impeccable spins, huge stops and all the other fancy buttons you could ask for, demonstrating a level of softness and suppleness that you can only dream of until now!

More than just a show horse, Astrid is the epitome of a family horse, offering a heart of gold that ensures the safety and enjoyment from riders of all ages. Whether left unridden for an extended period or ridden consistently, he maintains a consistent, kind and gentle demeanor, truly embodying a horse capable of handling prosperity. Astrid is a one-of-a-kind gem cherished by the whole family, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to showcase his brilliance to potential admirers.
