Description:
Crown Royal is a 4 year old, 15.3 HH draft cross with the kind of mind and disposition families dream about. He is by a Gurrola bred Quarter Horse stud and out of a Morgan × Belgian mare, giving him the best qualities of each breed. The Quarter Horse contributes trainability and athleticism, the Morgan adds heart and versatility, and the Belgian brings strength, bone, and that naturally calm draft disposition. The result is a horse with the perfect blend of brains, comfort, and reliability.

He is a striking gelding with a gorgeous dun dorsal stripe down his back and the kindest expression to match his personality.

From the moment he was born, Crown Royal was surrounded by children — truly redefining the phrase “born broke.” He grew up with kids climbing on him, brushing him, and learning around him, and because of that upbringing, his patience and kindness shine through in everything he does. He genuinely enjoys people and especially has a soft spot for kids and timid riders. He is the type of horse that builds confidence rather than taking it away — the kind families search for but rarely find.

I had the pleasure of offering his full brother, Captain, last year, and this family continues to impress in every way. Crown Royal is the last full brother that will ever be available, making him a rare opportunity to own one from this exceptional cross.

Crown Royal has been extensively exposed to “real world” situations and is a true all-around horse. He has been ridden on large cross country course where he confidently jumped logs, ditches, banks and went through water. He has also been ridden double, triple, and even backwards. He has completed obstacle courses including teeter-totter bridges, pool noodles, traffic obstacles, and more.

He has been around cattle, helped gather longhorns, and has been ridden comfortably through town, around loud semi-trucks, heavy traffic, construction noise, and busy environments. We’ve even ridden him to coffee shops and local food stands — and yes, we have even gone fishing on him.

Under saddle, Crown Royal rides both Western and English and has done dressage work. He moves nicely off the leg, collects, and easily transitions into an extended trot or canter. He has exceptionally smooth gaits with a fantastic jog, an easy rhythmic trot, and a soft, comfortable canter that is perfect for beginner riders — especially kids learning to canter.

For riders who need a little extra help mounting, Crown Royal is trained to come to the mounting block and will also lay down on cue.

He is naturally more whoa than go, but he is not lazy-he is just quiet, steady, and responsive.

Crown Royal truly is a certified all-around gelding. Whether you want to enjoy hunters, lower-level jumping, dressage, fox hunting, ranch riding, trail riding, or simply have a safe and enjoyable pleasure mount, his versatility and ultra safe mentality sets him apart. With his mind, bravery, and extensive exposure, he is the ultimate beginner friendly horse that I trust completely.

On the ground, he is just as easy as he is under saddle. He loads, ties, and cross ties quietly, stands politely for grooming, and is excellent to handle. He is an easy keeper, currently wears front shoes only, and turns out happily in a mixed herd. Leave him in the stall for a few days and pull him out — you will have the exact same horse.

Crown Royal has been on overnight camping trips where he confidently crossed deep water, climbed rocky hills, and explored miles of trails from Wyoming to Florida, always carrying our little riders safely along the way. He is incredibly sure footed, calm, and dependable wherever the trail leads.

And in true family horse fashion — one of our little riders has even hopped on him bareback in the dark to go meet the pizza delivery driver. 🍕

That’s just the kind of horse he is.

✨ Ladies — enjoy your English ride, then throw your husband on him in a Western saddle and head down the trail. He truly does it all. And yes… he is a real-life couch to sit on. ✨

Crown Royal easily falls into our “elite” category of horses. If you’re searching for one of the safest geldings you can find — from the tiniest riders to the “golden aged” riders — Crown Royal would be my first choice.

UTD on Coggins, vaccines, and health certificate.

Trials at our farm are welcome, and we can arrange shipping anywhere with our in-house shipper, making the buying process easy and seamless for out-of-state buyers.

Crown Royal truly checks every box — and then some.
