2017 Buckskin Gelidng

Tanks Leo is a 2017 AQHA registered buckskin gelding standing 15.1 hands tall. He is a gorgeous dapple buckskin, well built, and made the way a good gelding should be. We have owned Tank for the past five years, and he has truly been one of our family’s favorite horses.

Tank is extremely broke to ride, kind, gentle, and easy to operate. He has a great one-handed neck rein, all the right buttons, and is very user friendly. He lopes quiet, graceful circles, picks up his correct leads, has a big sliding stop, and will turn around correctly both directions, fast or slow.

Tank is a very good cow horse. He will lock onto a cow in the sorting pen and not let one sneak past him. He has roped and dragged thousands of calves to the branding fire and has been used every spring to head and heel calves at brandings. He is also an accomplished money-earning team roping horse that has been hauled and won on at jackpots, rodeos, and the Wrangler Year End Team Roping Finals. You can head or heel on him, and he is equally good on both ends.

Outside the arena, Tank is just as enjoyable. He walks out confidently on a loose rein, crosses water, steps over deadfall and brush, and handles rough country with ease. He is quiet, surefooted, and safe out on the trail or on the ranch.

Tank is gentle every time, even with time off, and saddles up the same. He is easy to catch, usually coming to find you if he can, and you can jump on him bareback and ride him back to the barn. He is also trained to sidestep over to a mounting block, fence, stump, or rock when you smooch to him, then wait patiently while you get on.

Tank has no bad habits and is good to bathe, trailer, and shoe. He sells 100% sound with a pre-purchase exam, and we will stand behind him. We cannot say enough good about this gelding. He has been a special horse to our family and will be greatly missed.

Tank sells Saturday, June 20th, at the Cowboy Select Horse Sale in Thermopolis, Wyoming.
