Rocket is an extremely well-bred 4 year old AQHA dark bay gelding, standing at almost 16 hands. Son of Zippy Zevi Dasher, a proven producer of multiple barrel race winners and money earners. He is futurity eligible.
Rocket was started as a 2 yr old but has been off to a slow start due to coming along right before I had my first two children and several moves around the country. Consequently, I do not have the time to really get him going and don’t want him to go to waste! He has a laid back personality and is mid to low in the pecking order. His training has consisted of 45 days of initial training and then off and on spurts of continued training since then, reminding him of the basics and slowly progressing to giving to seat and leg pressure. Learning to side pass and cross over. Weaves through cones at the trot easily. Very soft mouth. Takes the correct lead. Rides in or out of the arena. He is not yet patterned.
