ACE

Chill, user-friendly, forgiving, yet still fancy, athletic, and smooth…that’s Ace. Ace is a personal horse of mine and is not an easy one for me to list for sale. It’ll be hard to replace the personality and dependability that this guy brings to the barn and the arena, but we all must be adults at some point. I have done all the work with Ace myself, so it’s safe to say that I know this guy like the back of my hand. Ace comes with a clean PPE and X-rays that were done June 15th, 2026. He’s user friendly and stays good with time off. Parades, rodeos, trail rides; He’s been there and is ready to take you. They don’t come in a package like this very often! Ace has been an absolute cake walk to work with his entire life. From basic groundwork as a baby, all the way up to learning to spin, track the dummy, and carry sponsor flags at rodeos as a 3-year-old, Ace has had a “yes ma’am” attitude. He has been the most naturally dependable and trustworthy horse I’ve ever encountered. I’ve loved working with him so much that I went back to the breeder and purchased 2 more of his younger brothers! Ace has great ground manners, stands tied quietly both at home and away from home, loads and unloads without any issues, and hauls quietly. I’ve had him in many different living situations where he has lived in a pasture, been in smaller paddocks, been stalled and as of now he is in a stall/turn out lot rotation. He isn’t picky and gets along well in all living situations. Ace gets along well with other horses and as he gets older, I’ve noticed him going from the very bottom of the pecking order to more of the middleman. Ace stands great for the farrier and currently has shoes on all four feet. He stands well for all of the basics such as bathes, vet work, grooming, saddling, etc. While I, myself am not a showman, (I prefer to start colts and install the foundation) I see Ace being a fantastic candidate for ranch versatility events, reining, and/or roping. The gentleman roping on Ace in my videos had never ridden him before and he had no issues putting Ace exactly where he wanted him. He’s very user-friendly! Ace carries himself extremely well and wants to have a big stop. All the buttons are there! He’s broke in the body, soft in his face, and knows how to gear up and gear down by rating your seat. He might be fancy, but this guy is still easy to ride. He’s been my go-to horse this year to put people on so that I know they will be safe. My niece is still a very timid little rider and he took care of her like he was a senior citizen while she learned the ropes. This guy is experienced youth suitable and is also okay for the littles with a little supervision. While he is super chill and easy going, Ace does have a motor to him when you really ask for it. He has the gears and the want to, to make a rope horse on both ends. I’ve tracked cattle and played with sorting a few on Ace here and there when cattle were available. Let me tell you, he didn’t disappoint! This fella loves cattle and goes to them naturally. We’ve also worked the flag and Ace hooked on to that as well and showed us his natural draw and just how catty he wanted to be. With a nice, big stop, spins both ways, seamless transitions, and THE SMOOTHEST GAITS you’ll ever sit on a Quarter Horse, Ace really deserves to be someone’s number one and go do big things. I’ve hauled him with my barrel horses to jackpots and rode him around for exposure. Not a thing phases him. It’s like he’s been everywhere we go 10 times already before. I had the opportunity to carry sponsor flags for the Cowboy Capital Pro Rodeo and Ranch Rodeo this September and Ace stepped up to the plate like an absolute champ. I received countless compliments on just how quiet and broke he was before anyone even knew he was just a 3 year old. The loud atmosphere, large crowds, herds of children in the calf scramble, rodeo stock banging into the fence in front of us and surprise explosions in the clown act were no big deal. With this opportunity we also rode in the parade which surprise, surprise…no big deal for Ace. We even had traffic going by us in the opposite lane while crossing a bridge and still carrying sponsor flags on the way back from our parade route. Not one flinch was made by Ace. I’ve also pasture rode and trail rode Ace in different places, and he handles that environment just as well. No big deal here! He’s helped me by ponying colts here at the ranch, but he is also good about being ponied. Aces stays quiet with time off and has never offered any sort of funny business, not even back when he was first getting started. Flags, tarps, trash cans, kids on bikes, traffic, none of that has phased ol Ace man. He really is a gem. To discuss more and/or come meet Ace please call Shelby at 309-678-7521.
