I looked at that last night.. and there are 5 very nice reg. paso finos that should be gotten 2 studs and 3 mares, ALL have either been shown or show potential. The cremello stud is an ex pleasure horse as well as the dun mare. All are between the ages of 6 and 15.. and the papers are pictured.. I would snatch em up.. because they are Waaaayy to nice to be going to slaughter.. and I cant understand why the owner wouldnt just sell them instead of consigning them a broker.. that's heart breaking.. all appear to be broke to ride.. at least the two stallions.. as a lady is riding each of them bareback in the pics. I would love to have that Cremello.. he is absolutely gorgeous, but have no stallion experience.. Anybody looking for show quality pasos, get them and there appeared to be what looked like to me a chestnut rocky mare on there too. 4 years old..

Pasos are on page 3 XD

They all came from the same farm.. atleast that's what I gathered from the papers posted. What I dont understand is why consign them to a broker for killers? These are very nice horses and I would think they would probably be worth 5 to 10 grand each.. based on they're breeding and show experience.. atleast 2 were shown. The others are show quality and could be.. so why sell them to a meat man? That's just a waste... I dont understand.. Those are nice horses.. and could easily sell.. even in this market..

they have a big belgian that looks to be the perfect husband horse, they're entirely too far for me though, sigh, probably a good thing.

I'm interested in the 3 Paso mares but due to a new computer with Vista I cannot view videos. Trying to download from Microsoft so I can watch, taking forever. Please someone tell me which of the 3 looks the smoothest and most trained. I have RA in my hips and need a super smooth willing trail horse. Thanks a mil!

All three look nice. Only the paints have videos.. both look to handle well but cant really see how the gaits are.. Cant wait to see the video of the dun mare when it gets uploaded

The 2 stallions have better videos.. both look very smooth and handle well for studs..

The papers are listed if anybody knows anything about paso breeding..

All of the paso's seem to be nice horses. From the video's, bits don't appear to be appropriate and the girl riding doesn't appear to have ridden gaited horses much, so it's really hard to judge them. The 2 stallions seem to be smoother in these short videos and the second paint mare seems more calm than the first. As I said, it's hard to judge with just the short film. The 4yr.old looks to be pacey, not smooth.

Yeah, based on the footage the stallions seemed to gait smoother but it's hard to judge. The second mare, like the above poster stated seemed to handle better then the first and the chestnut stallion seemed abit hot but given the fact the bit seemed to be aggrivating him, that could be why he was acting that way. Cremello seemed to handle quite nicely though, aside from the bit irritation, he seemed to have a quieter disposition. Videos werent very good though.. so would be hard to judge about any of them.
Like the above poster stated the bits seemed to be irritating them, causing abit of headslinging.. so it's hard to judge.

Here's another video of the second paint mare.. looks like a better gait video..

Also looks like she has abit of a blow up toward the end of the video.. hard to tell.. but looks like she's doing abit of rearing.. A ill fitting bit could cause it.. or bad manners..

I don't think the bits that are being used are appropriate either. If the girl riding her is unsure, that can make a difference to the horse. She looks to be harsh with her hands and if the horse isn't used to being ridden bareback, that can also be a challenge. All of these horses may ride very differently in proper tack and with a knowledgable rider.
