Why She’s Amazing:
Cruising Down Daisy is the kind of horse that captures hearts instantly. She’s a tall rider’s dream, but her gentle and affectionate nature makes her just as suitable for smaller riders. She is broke, and she handles busy environments with ease — from trucks and fireworks to dogs and other animals. With her versatility, she could continue developing as a dressage prospect, become a hunter, enjoy relaxed trail rides, or simply thrive as a cherished companion.
