The Personality
Personality: Blue is a horse that was worked and worked well. He was run under saddle by one of the best trainers the Landry family could find, and that shows. Once he bonds with you, some of the goofy silliness will come out, but for the first little while this gelding will be all business. Though he was gelded late and still thinks he's hot shit, he maintains a generally sweet disposition-- before gelding he was always a gentleman. He detests being pushed around and maintains a lot of the flashy, sparkly personality that comes in the movements of a stallion. If Blue gets any feeling that you're less confident than usual in the first five minutes, he's going to act up the entire ride.
Caution Around: mares in heat, the first five minutes of a ride.
The History
Basic History: Blue (Rocky Horror (a Boomernic daughter) x Big Chex To Cash) was the first foal Parker was ever able to watch grow from conception to present. Born on the Landry family property in 2003, the young man basically grew up with the colt. Parker worked with the creature as a foal, helping out wherever he could when his interest in horses was still strong. As they both aged, Parker's interest in horses waned slightly, but he still did take time to watch the trainer (and his father) work with the stud colt. He'd been around to watch Blue's first two foals born as well. After several successful breedings on the family's farm and allowing the stallion out to stud, the decision was made to geld him in 2010 at the age of seven. When Parker was shipped off here, Blue was the easy choice to take along.
