Gottablessthismess — better known as "Waco" — is a 2018 bay gelding that brings together proven performance, versatility, and the kind of disposition everyone is searching for. With over $45,455 in reining earnings and still adding to his record, Waco has already established himself as a consistent competitor with the talent to stand out.

In the arena, he's everything you'd expect from a top-tier reining horse: flashy, athletic, and a true stopper. Step outside the arena, and he's just as impressive. Waco travels on a loose rein wherever you point him, with a quiet, gentle demeanor and a willing, user-friendly attitude that makes him enjoyable for a wide range of riders.

Waco is also a finished head and heel horse, having won jackpots across Montana on both ends. He's exceptionally easy to rope on — with a strong, confident run to the hip, natural rate, and a reliable, consistent approach every time you nod your head. Whether you're heading or heeling, he gives you the same dependable shot.

On the ranch, Waco has seen the real world. He's been used extensively for gathering, branding, and doctoring, and handles those jobs with ease. He's the kind that stays honest and dependable no matter the task. Even better, he's great with kids and mindful of riders who are still learning, making him a trustworthy partner you can feel confident putting anyone on.

If you're looking for a horse that can step into the show pen, go win at the jackpots, or carry you through a day's work on the ranch — and still be the one you enjoy riding on the weekend — Waco checks every box.

His pedigree only adds to his appeal. Sired by the legendary Spooks Gotta Whizz, an NRHA Hall of Famer and $13+ million sire, Waco is backed by some of the most influential bloodlines in the reining industry. On the bottom side, he traces to Black Custom Chex, a proven producer of over $170,000 in NRHA earnings, and the great Custom Crome, whose offspring have earned more than $4.2 million.

Waco is the total package — talent, mind, experience, and pedigree — all wrapped into one standout gelding.

Waco will be going up for sale at the Big Sky Premier Horse Sale July 9th-11th. Call Gavin for more information 406-475-1495.
