Lexy
Five Element Type: Fire
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age:9
Height: 14-14.2
Color: Brown (almost totally black if stalled)
Location: San Antonio, TX
Skills: Enrolled in the American Stock Horse Association. She has had some cutting training and sorting training.
Available For: Sale - $5,000.00 (Negotiable)
Lexy is a very flashy mare that will get you noticed. When she walks into the pen her ears flatten and she is all business.
She has a natural low head set and has nice sweeping moves that help keep you centered. She works off your leg or rein and is very
flexible. Rarely does a classy young mare of her caliber come on the market. I really, really like her but the truth is that she
is just too quick for me. She does her part in trying to keep me centered, but I just no longer have the strength to ride her like
she needs to be ridden. If you like cutting and sorting, you will love this mare.
Her registered name is: DOCS NU REFLECTION AQHA #4418671. We call her Lexy. She is double bred Doc Bar on her papers.
She is strictly for experienced riders. She is spooky to ride outside of the arena and would not make a trail riding horse.

Hula
Five Element Type: Earth/Metal
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: 11
Height: 14-14.2
Color: Sorrel
Location: San Antonio, TX
Skills: Ranch horse, sorting pleaure riding, kids have ridden, family horse.
Available For: Sale - $3500.00 (May Be Negotiable)
REGISTERED NAME: ROJA TRIX AQHA #5149626
We call her HULA and she is a very sweet and kind mare. She was raised and worked on a ranch until I bought her about 4 yrs ago. I had not ridden for 40 yrs so I was seeking a gentle horse that I could ride and learn to sort cattle on. She was a blessing. She took care of me in and out of the pen. She restored my confidence so much so that I bought another horse that would take me to the next level. She has such a sweet nature that kids ride her around the pasture and she takes care of them. As a disclaimer, she did buck me off on a trail ride over a year ago. The first and only time she has done so. We were starting on a trail ride when a covered wagon pulled by mules began to move and it scared her. I’ve ridden her a lot since then and she has been perfect. In fact, we did a course for the Bexar County Search and Rescue where they shot confetti in her face, made us walk up stairs, open gates, walk on mattress, etc. She has a certificate for passing the course.

Lily

between Fire, Wood, Shao Yang, and Shao Yin
Breed: Arabian
Gender: Mare
Age: 12
Height: 14.3 hands
Color: Grey
Location: NE of Austin near Taylor
Skills: Exceptionally good ground manners, sensitive and light under saddle. Trained to move off of seat and leg. Working on lateral movements under saddle.
Available For: Sale ($3,000)
Contact: Candace Costis (cvhorses@gmail.com or 512-898-2573)
Trained to respond to seat and leg and is very forward, light and sensitive to the aids. She is alert, intelligent and likes attention. On the horse harmony temperaments she showed a pretty even balance between Earth, Tai Yang, Jue Yin, and Tai Jin and a secondary minimal balance between Fire, Wood, Shao Yang, and Shao Yin. Relating these findings to what I see:
Earth: respect and food. This is very true. She is especially concerned about how other horses perceive her vis a vis her value to her human handler. Her secondary indications of Wood and Fire are applicable especially the characteristics of Wood which profits from a mental and physical challenge. Force is not a good idea here. Reason and preferences mentioned above work much better.
Tai Yin: prefers the attention of one person and will work hard for that person enjoying respect and routine. But she is not at all slow moving or heavy.
Tai Yang: pretty accurate all around but her energy is not usually high - more medium high - alert and active.
Jue Yin: There is this mercurial aspect to her personality but if the other needs of routine, respect, food and firm guidance are met this does not manifest except as lightness and sensitivity to aids.
Shao Yin and Shao Yang: attention, social interaction and figuring things out, yes. She can be very laid back and "good" if just to get attention, food and respect. Lily is agile and athletic and sometimes challenging but is not aggressive.

Available For: Sale (Temporarily priced at $1,000)
Contact: Candace Costis (cvhorses@gmail.com or 512-898-2573)
CNV Midnight Domino is a go anywhere, do anything type of horse. He is "a buddy." He is not herd bound, loves and trusts people and jumps into the trailer. He thinks he is human and gets depressed without a lot of interaction. Domino had a very frightening experience recently and we think he was stung by a wasp while under saddle. He was very fearful for a few weeks but seems to have recovered and is his old reliable self. Sales are guaranteed. Your satisfaction or return a horse as he left here for your refund. This horse is a very good choice for anyone who wants a real partner to ride often. Pony club, eventing or trail.

Walker - SOLD!
Five Element Type: Shao Yin
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: 5
Height: 14.3 hands
Color: Bay, Snip
Location: Fruita, CO
Skills: Started as Heel Horse in Roping
Available For: Sale (call for pricing)
Contact: NA - Walker has been sold. Thanks for your interest!
 Walker is a lovely gelding who wants to please. He is bred for speed and cow, with Two-Eyed Jack in his bloodline. He has already completed the ground work for roping, as well as being fully capable of following and roping a RoboSteer.
He has also done a lot of box work and scoring, as well as following live steers. He has participated in two ropings, and he and his owner have successfully heeled several steers.
At this point in his career, Walker is ready for professional training. He has the speed, endurance, cow, and desire to please to be an excellent heel horse, and his abilities far exceed his owner's novice roping skills. Being a Shao Yin, he can also be a bit spooky and fearful without support from his rider. That's why he needs an experienced roper to take him to the next level. Experienced ropers have seen and commented on Walker's high level of potential as a heel horse.
Walker also has foundational training in reining, and is well-broke to ride in an arena. He is considered green-broke in roping.
Valentine - SOLD!!
Five Element Type: Wood
Breed: Mustang
Gender: Mare
Age: 7
Height: 15.3 hands
Color: Grulla
Location: Olathe, CO
Skills: Jumping, Ranch Sorting, Team Penning, Trail Riding, started in Roping
Available For: Placement ($2,000 firm)
Contact: NA - Valentine has been sold. Thanks for your interest!
 Valentine is a tough, strong-minded mare who is very competitive. She has competed successfully in the jumper ring up to 3' (was Jumper Champion of the Year in 2008 in the local circuit), but jumping is not her favorite sport. She prefers to work cattle in ranch sorting and team penning, or climb any given mountain (she is a mustang from a WY herd).
She has started training in roping, but is far from experienced. She walks, trots, and lopes in both directions, does flying lead changes, has good lateral movement, neck-reins, and has a good stop. Valentine goes in either English or Western tack, but behaves much better in Western gear. She needs a strong rider who is equally strong-minded, and will find her mischievous behavior amusing. Would make an excellent ranch horse for an experienced rider. Owner is looking for placement for Valentine to make more room for new mustang colts to be trained.
Reyacita - PLACED!
Five Element Type: Metal
Breed: Mustang
Gender: Mare
Age: 5
Height: 14 hands
Color: Buckskin
Location: Olathe, CO
Skills: Trail Horse, Roping (started in training), Intermediate to Advanced Rider Needed
Available For: Placement ($600)
Contact: NA - Reyacita has been placed. Thanks for your interest!
 Reyacita is a wonderful Metal temperament mustang mare who likes to please as long as she is very clear about her job description.
She is a trained trail horse and has been started in roping as a heel horse. She is calm in the box and is just learning to leave the box with speed.
Although she is quite willing to please, she needs a strong rider who will set boundaries, which is typical for a Metal horse. Repetition in training are important to her. She has been known to buck weak riders off out of lack of respect, but never with strong riders.
Reyacita sucks her tongue back against her soft palate when she is nervous, causing a rattling in her throat, but does not have COPD or heaves. She does better with a supplemental herb to prevent this habit. She is a beautiful mover and also cowy. A video of her from last summer is below, and she is much further along now.

Chloe - SUCCESSFULLY PLACED!!!
Five Element Type: Wood
Breed: Paso Fino
Gender: Mare
Age: 9
Height: 14.2 hands
Color: Palomino
Location: Santa Clarita, CA (So. Cal.)
Skills: Natural horsemanship since birth. Good ground manners. Ridden on trail, but green.
Available For: Placement ($1,200 negotiable)
Contact: NA - Chloe has been placed. Thanks for your interest!
 
Gorgeous, smart, never sick, barefoot, strong, registered, smooth gait, no vaccines, raised holistically, natural horsemanship methods used since birth, grass-only hays. I own 4 Paso Finos. Not enough time for all.
Chloe needs a JOB and a confident and caring rider. Fair but firm. Patient. She learns very quickly, but doesn’t have enough to do and gets sassy and head-strong. With former trainer, she mellowed out and could be ridden bareback and bitless while he gave lessons to his students! Stood calmly for him, learned tricks. I’M NOT MY TRAINER! Chloe and I are not a good match! I’d love to get more money for her (she has great bloodlines), but more important is finding her the right home and person who will appreciate this amazing horse and USE HER for all her talents.
Lopeh - SOLD!
Five Element Type: Metal
Breed: Poco Bueno/Leo Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare

Height: 14.3 hands
Color: Bay
Location: Cerrillos, New Mexico
Skills: 4-H, Advanced Rider Recommended, All-Around, Broodmare, Cow Horse (Prospect)
Available For: Sale ($2,000)

 Lopeh is a 9-year-old Poco Bueno/Leo QH mare, with papers. She spent her last 3-4 years in a breeding herd in New Mexico and produced 3 babies we know of.
I rescued her in November '09 when the herd was dispersed suddenly and headed to auction (probably slaughter).
She is of old King Ranch stock, was ridden before her breeding herd days, and has good ground manners. She's a beautiful bay with no white markings, 14-3 hands. She's a very "typey," old-style QH and is at a trainer's right now.
