Here he is! Casper being a perfect gentleman. I love this horse and wish I had the money to buy him, but that's just not an option. My friend owns this horse and has given me explicit and written consent to sell him. His asking price is $5500. Will geld to suit and do post-procedure care for $6000.
Casper is mainly trained in Western Pleasure, HUS, Trail, Showmanship, and Equitation classes of all sorts. He has just now started jumping and is loving it. I spent an hour with him Yesterday (3/16/09) and Today (3/17/09) taking these jumping videos. Casper is just now getting back into shape from having the winter off.
If kept a stallion, the buyer will be pleased to know that he is a perfect gentleman while breeding. Not pushy or aggressive with the nice mares. Also, because of his "stallion brain," he is not good being pastured with or near geldings who are in with "his" mares. He does best in a stall, but is also great in a solitary pasture.
If gelded, Casper will make some kid one HECK of a show horse. He has the heart and brains to do just about anything. This video clearly shows that. He has never had any formal training in jumping, this video was taken his 3rd time ever jumping. The first time was out on the trail just goofing around, the second time was trying to catch the videos, but they didn't turn out, and this was his third time. Great job Cas!
P.S. If you must critique my equitation, please be nice. I am a western girl and have never jumped in my life. I just recently recovered from a dislocated knee (in September '08), so my strength on a horse is still far from perfect.

Edited to add a video of two of his offspring. Casper consistently produces Cremello from Palominos. This is Phantom and Pixie. Phantom is the one being chased. Lol, it's supposed to be a sale video, but he didn't want to run away, he wanted loves. Pixie is only 3 weeks old in the video and still very much attached to her momma.
