McCurdy's Roan Lightning Rain,
"Rainer" Foaled March 31, 2010
Rainer is a half brother to 88 - a gorgeous blue roan, blue
papered top and bottom registered McCurdy gelding purchased from
Ed McCurdy in Alabama as a 3 year old.
He has had 2 months pro western training
here in TX. Rainer is safe, sound, solid on trails and smooth.
He has a deep striding effortless gait and covers a lot of
territory.
Rainer is also a versatile using horse
with a can do attitude about everything. Extremely calm and
affectionate.
SOLD,
Congratulations to Tammy Kimbrell of
Chunchula, Alabama (outside of Mobil) on her purchase of Rainer!
She flew into DFW and spent 2 full days with us evaluating
Rainer, and his progress with pro trainer Ray Weathered of
Athens with basic Western Pleasure and Trail riding. She
accepted the challenge to Cowgirl Up and see what all Rainer can
do. We were all riding twice a day for 3 hours at a time on 800+
acres at Trace Trails.
Rainer passed all the tests with flying colors, going like a
pro, for a young and green 5 year old. Even in the Texas heat in
sandflats, up hills, thru woods and trails, he was steady,
smooth, calm-- hardly breaking a sweat, with extreme stamina.
But Cajun, Rio, and 88 thought they were all going to die!
Tammy will keep Rainer in training with Steve Foley, reining
pro, western riding, and all around trainer in Mobil, Alabama.
This is her 2nd McCurdy Plantation Horse. We welcome her to the
MPH Association and family. She is excited to attend the Fall
Ride with her horses on Oct 3, 2015 at The Southern Sportsman
Hunting Lodge on Hwy 80 between Selma and Montgomery.
Happy Trails, and see you there!

McCurdy, presenting " SANTE FE McCURDY"
Exotic Blue Roan mare, 15.1 H tall. Big hip
and chest, keen & chiseled face. ------ This gorgeous
5 year old mare
has had 3 and a half months professional training. She is very light
and responsive to the aids. Sante Fe neck reins, backs, side passes
and canters easily. She is bold on trails, calm, extremely smooth, and
sure footed. She has never been shod, only trimmed, and has super
feet.
I have been riding her over our 250 acres with
4 dogs, crossing water, opening gates, and pushing cattle. She loves
cattle work. Sante Fe has a dynamic work ethic and is extremely
athletic--she is a Performance Level horse. She is available Only to
another veteran gaited horseman, who will use her in a working
environment and McCurdy breed promotions. Her disposition is stellar.
She has a good head nod , and a deep smooth stride, and a 4 beat fluid
gait. Sante Fe is like Bo Derek, a "10". If you are looking for a "10"
to spend the next 20 years of your life with, she's finally ready!
