Gator is a big beautiful baby boy.  He was born to be a jumper.  His potential as an eventer is unbelievable. He was bred in Louisiana.  His sire, Louisiana King, was a well known racing Thoroughbred from that area.  Fran started taking lessons on him last year and they became soul mates. 

When he moves he moves with such long smooth graceful gaits that you can't believe this tall gangly horse can be so collected.  He is sweet and so loving that you just want to take him home and put him in your backyard.  He has a jolly ball that hangs on a chain in his stall.  This ball is his nap buddy.  When he takes a nap he slides his head under the ball so that it rest on his neck while he sleeps.
