Who doesn’t immediately fall in love with a golden eyed palomino stallion? It’s hard not to be drawn to Kvikur from the moment you lay eyes on him.

We’ve been fortunate enough to have known this horse from the start of his training. He has been quite amiable and straightforward. His calm disposition and positive mindset towards work are especially noteworthy as a young stallion. Kvikur’s movements tend to naturally be open and reaching. Spring of 2024 we took Kvikur to his first Breeding Assessment where he received 1st Prize for conformation and 2nd Prize overall. Highlights were he received 8.5 for Hooves with comments such as well developed, well formed, and strong horn material. He also received 8.5 for Leg Quality with comments including big joints, correct limbs, and good feathers. In his ridden assessment he showed all five gaits and this was his first time traveling away from home for a big event - quite an accomplishment for a 5 year old horse! His highest score was an 8.5 for walk which included comments good stride length, clear beat, steady, and energetic. He also received a 7.5 for ride ability and general impression. That weekend he also competed in the Green Horse T0lt scoring over 6.0 and for the very first time in F2 Five Gait scoring over 5.0. We are excited to see how he develops in the coming years both in breeding assessments and in competitions.
