Thoroughbred Gelding for Sale in Madisonville, LA
Green but he walks, trots, canters, steers, jumps 18", and I haven't had him spook at anything. A little unbalanced and forward in the canter. Stands to be groomed, tacked, shod, cuddled with. He really is a very kind, gentle, willing, in your pocket horse. Quiet and kind under saddle and in hand. Can be ridden bareback in a halter. Limited history. Used to have hind end pain but has been mostly sound and alot more comfortable after getting his SI injected. Would be a great kids horse with more training.
About Madisonville, LA
Madisonville was founded by Jean Baptiste Baham in 1800, before the United States acquired this area, as the town of Coquille or Cokie because of the abundance of shells in the area, at the site of the Native American village of Chiconcte. The town was renamed in honor of President James Madison circa 1811. Madisonville was an important port, providing bricks and other products of the towns along the Tchefuncte River to New Orleans, in the decades before the Civil War. After the Union capture of New Orleans, this area remained under nominal Confederate control; and the cutoff of trade with New Orleans across "enemy lines" was devastating to the local economy, which did not recover for decades after the peace. The opening of the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway and associated highways gradually brought Madisonville into the sphere of Greater New Orleans, in the second half of the 20th century.
