🐴The Great Pumpkin a.k.a. Gracie

📍 Cornerstone Farm South of Naples, Florida

⭐28-year-old Quarter Horse, two years giving lessons

🥕Favorite Treat: Shaved carrots

😊If she were a famous person, she would be: Sandra Bullock

✅Gracie is kind, patient and is the best at teaching the canter. Her longe line manners are impeccable and she will stand and wait while little children attempt to bridle her. She is the favorite of all our adult riders for her smooth transitions and steady pace. She is a metronome! Gracie has never lost a pleasure horse class in 22 years! Gracie halts, backs on command and will stand until told to move. We love her little nickers to the kids when she sees them. She is the "grandma" of our program and has been with us since she was 3-years-old! She is amazing, I wish I had her in every size, shape and color!
