So, I have been looking for a new project pony and I found this...

Needless to say Im hesitant. The horse can do all that, and hes 3? Im also fairly certain Ive seen a very similar horse at horse shows 4 years ago. Could be his sire or dam? They could be lying? Honestly I dunno what to think here. It just seems really fishy to me. Too good to be true lol.

I have contacted them for more info as well.

Looks like a well-started baby to me. :) My trainer starts her babies around 2 YO for the futurity. Within a few months, they can do all that, understand the idea of working a flag, follow a cow, stop well, etc. Personally, I wouldn't be jumping too much at that age but it may have just been for the video.

While he looks well-started, you have to also keep in mind and be realistic that he's still fairly young and has a lot to still be exposed to and definitely needs LOTS more miles.

Welshes and QHs are also known for being very very smart, levelheaded, and trainable. What he can do doesn't surprise me a lot, though I would be concerned about his joints later on down the road.
