Rip has been brought along by one of my favorite trainers on the East , Miss Kelsey Parisi. He is a confident, athletic young horse best suited for a confident intermediate rider or above to continue bringing him along. He’s sound with no prior injuries or limitations, barefoot, and an easy keeper. This is a horse that genuinely wants to please—friendly, outgoing, forward-thinking, and responsive to the aids without being overwhelming.

He has extensive arena experience in both English and Western disciplines, and absolutely loves to jump, whether in the ring or out on the trail. Rip free jumps with scope to spare, and shows a natural enthusiasm for his work.

Outside the arena, he truly shines. Rip has extensive trail mileage, including introductory-level endurance racing, night riding, swimming, and camping trips in both large and small groups. He’s brave, adaptable, and the kind of partner who thrives on adventure.

I had the pleasure of riding Rip for the first time myself the other day at an indoor he had never been to - and he let me get right on him, bareback in a halter, and walk/trot him around the arena  .. he really was very tolerant of me being a silly goose when he honestly should have thrown me in the dirt 😂 and I can honestly tell you his stop is fabulous.
