Valerio has a new job while he's on vacation from endurance...."weanling babysitter"! I took Val's mares out of the pasture and put his 2 sons and a perlino QH filly in with him. Val has been so good with them that he even shares his grain. He doesn't even do that with his mares, lol!

CRR Vanguard is a 2022 purebred Arabian gelding (Valerio GA x SH Beretta). This mahogany bay gelding is going to have the size and athletic ability of his sire and dam. He is expected to mature to 15.2H. He has substance and good bone, correct conformation, straight legs and big hooves. He has been out at pasture all summer running up and down the mountain at 8,000+ ft elevation. He is certainly learning how to handle tough and challenging terrain. This boy will most definitely excel at endurance or in the sport horse disciplines. Don't miss out on a quality and althetic youngster to add to your performance goals. Very reasonably priced at $3000.

CRR Viggo - 2023 black Half Arabian c**t (Valerio GA x Pippi). Viggo has the SWEETEST puppy dog personality. He absolutely loves attention and hanging out with people and dogs, lol. As soon as he was foaled; Bingo, my Great Pyranees thought he Viggo's protector and took his job seriosly. He would always be close by and watching out for his new buddy.

Viggo is out of my unregistered palomino Paint mare. He is correct conformation and straight legs. He certainly got the best attributes of both worlds. Nice strong hip, short coupled, pretty little head like his sire and nice length of leg. He will definitely make someone a very loyal mount and can do just about any discipline. I expect that he will mature between 14.3 - 15H and be of medium build. Offered at $4500.

CRR Valyrian Steel - 2023 blue roan Half Arabian (Valerio GA x Poco Shady Blue) What a cross these two have produced!!!🥰 Steel is a rare and hard to find blue roan Half Arabian with all the great qualities you would want in an Arabian / Quarter Horse cross. He has correct conformation, good substance and bone, big hip, short coupled and beautiful movement. He is a friendly and confident c**t. I feel he's stallion quality and would make a great asset to someone's Half Arabian breeding program. He would excel in a just about any discipline someone would like to do. Available at weaning to the right home. Mid 5 figures.

FOR SALE - 2018 black and white tobiano Kentucky Mountain / Spotted Mountain gaited filly. Naturally gaited that is very smooth but she can also trot and canter beautifully. Correct conformation and straight legs, currently stands 14.1H. Ginny is started under saddle. She is light and responsive to seat and leg cues, has a nice stop on command and is soft and supple in a bozel. She loves going out on trail rides and will lead or follow. She isn't spooky at all and rather explore or approach something than shy away from it. She loves to go in the water and one of her favorite things to do is eat aquatic vegetation. LOL. She has a very sweet and willing disposition. With more time and experience under saddle she will eventually be a beginner or youth horse. $5000

Classy Investment (Jesse) and her 2021 c**t by Valerio GA. What a good mare for letting me just hop on her ba****ck in the pasture and ride her around. She is SOOO comfortable!!

Jesse is confirmed back in foal to Valerio GA for a May 2022 foal. Foal will be either buckskin or bay. I'm thrilled with this year's foal, he's confident, friendly, correct and loves to run. I think he'll be a great endurance horse like his dam!

Valerio GA and Noble Contender, owned by Tennessee Lane. Both are stallions and the video is of them meeting for the first time. It was a bit traumatic at first but soon they settled down and went to grazing. They'll live together with other geldings. Tennessee and I believe that a stallions life should be as normal as possible and that they should be able to live with other horses. There are no mares present, that would be asking for trouble.

Some of my youngsters playing in the snow at Remuda Run. So happy to have all my horses in one location right out my window!

Valerio GA at the Land of the Sun Endurance Ride this past Saturday (2/27/2021). From the show ring to the trail, I'm consistently impressed with my boy. He seems to handle about any situation I keep exposing him too. Not to mention that I felt great after 50 miles, well a bit sore but I was able to stand up straight and walk and even touch my toes. Due to some severe back issues, I haven't been doing 50's for two years. I tested out a 75 miler on Val at the end of last season and was for the most part okay, so hopefully here we come 50's for the 2021 endurance season. Next ride is Old Pueblo Pioneer.

Valerio GA got a Top 10 at the 2021 Scottsdale Arabian Show this past week. I showed him in the Arabian Sport Horse Under Saddle Hunter Type AATR.
