One Smart Captain is a handsome 2002 bay AQHA Appendix gelding. 
     Captain stands 15.2hh and as a grandson of Smart Chic Olena, he possesses a lot of talent.  He has big, smooth, ground covering strides and a willing attitude.  He is smart, sensitive, and retains lessons well.
     Captain would be suitable for both English and Western disciplines.  He moves off nicely at a walk, trot, and canter on a loose rein and collects with light contact using a snaffle.  Other training includes: lateral and verticle flexion, pivot on the forequarters and the hindquarters, leg yield/side pass/diagonals, and lead departures.
     Captain would excel at non-pro dressage, huntseat, and jumping.  He has good extension and suspension.  He would also do well in timed events such as barrel racing as he is fast and athletic.
     Most of Captain's training has been in the arena and he is most comfortable there.  We are now also working on trail riding.
     Captain is affectionate, has good ground manners, trailer loads, and has no vices.  He would be good for an intermediate rider. 
 
Currently asking $7500.
