Is Hope for sale or are you just going to start looking for a gaited horse?

Weeeell, Hope wasn't really for sale at the time, but Becky liked her, and as buyers go they really don't get much better than her (except for maybe Hair ), and Lord knows I've got too many horse to ride, so it just kinda happened.

Well, in the long run, Hope and Ellie will be practically indistinguishable, don't you think? I could barely tell them apart except for size, and the cut over her eye and Ellie will grow out of those ;~). I just think right now Hope has that extra year of experience that makes Becky a little more comfortable. It'll leave you time to put more miles on Ellie. If Becky delays too much, you might be able to sell her Ellie anyway :~)

I will say that under your leadership, Ellie was most impressive for such a young horse. She's a bold, brave little horse. She did great. And I'd say IF I were ever to buy a gaited, it would have to come from you. I like the experience you put on them, and I'd trust your judgment of a good one.
