Valkyrie aka Val is a yearling Mustang filly from Bordo Atravesado NM. She’s bay with ND1, meaning she has some dun characteristics like frosting and – when she’s not growing a winter coat – countershading in place of an actual dorsal stripe. We last measured her at 13.2hh. She string tests to 14.3hh.
Valkyrie is leggy and gritty, built to navigate rough terrain all day long. Her HMA seems to produce some tough, athletic horses and she is no exception.
Endurance? Checking cattle and miles of fence? Enjoying long rides just for the heck of it? She’s your girl.
Val is easy to catch and handle, curious and brave. Yes she has opinions. I love an honest, expressive horse and she is that.
She’s also consistent, very trainable and remains manageable even during baby moments.
Valkyrie knows all age appropriate groundwork:
She’s good to catch, groom, spray and trim (feet that is. She was a rock star for her first farrier visit). She leads and lunges, sends and leads over obstacles, moves hips and shoulders and backs.
Valkyrie does well on walks out in the open, is good with dogs and loads and unloads calmly. She’s fine being handled by new people.
She is suitable for a first time Mustang adopter with prior horse experience.
Valkyrie is currently located at Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy in Guffey, CO. We can help arrange hauling within the lower 48.
