Horse Details
Hankerelse, aka Ranger loves to turn a barrel. He is dead quiet until you ask him to run, and then he will fire hard and mean business. He is not stud lazy, just a quiet willing mind. He is very light in the bridle and quick footed. We seldom exhibitioned him as a youngster as he has always been very responsible to find his barrels. He is beautifully balanced and level and has exceptionally strong feet and bones. His feet are hard and grow down without flaring or chipping. He has a wonderful natural cup and depth to his soles which holds the ground. We run him barefoot. He is 6 panel Negative. Many references from the West Texas barrel racing community are readily available to tell you about the temperament of this beautiful stallion.
