Ginger is a beautiful grade Missouri Fox Trotter mare that may not be flashy, but she has the kind of natural presence and solid build that truly stands out. She is 7 years old and stands 14.3 hands with a nice, balanced confirmation and a beautiful head that catches your eye. Ginger is the definition of a “trail horse deluxe” and the kind you can enjoy day in and day out. She is very naturally gaited and incredibly smooth, making her a pleasure to ride whether you’re covering miles or just taking it easy. She has been ridden by riders of all skill levels and is happy to walk along on a loose rein, never going faster than she’s asked while still being responsive when you want more. Out on the trail, Ginger will go anywhere you point her—she crosses water and logs with ease and will confidently travel through thick, rough terrain without hesitation. She is not spooky or silly in any way and carries herself with a calm, seasoned mindset that makes her feel safe and reliable. She rides off alone with no issues and is just as content riding in a group, whether she’s leading, in the middle, or bringing up the rear. Ginger is well acclimated to traffic, wildlife, dogs, farm equipment, and other animals, taking everything in stride. She stands quietly to mount and is broke well, with a nice neck rein, a good stop, and backs with ease. On the ground, she is just as easy to be around—she stands tied well, has good manners, is great for the farrier, and loads and hauls without any trouble. Ginger is the kind of mare that may not demand attention at first glance, but once you spend time with her, you quickly realize just how special and enjoyable she really is.
