[QUOTE="MillIronQH, post: 320840, member: 4658"] The modern mustangs are very different then what people think when they picture the mustangs of the 1800s. As the army sarted disbanding the horse mounted calvery many of the TB and Morgan remount stallions were turned loose and bred with the mustangs. This resulted in some pretty good horseflesh. Also the western ranchers often turned good stallions loose and gathered the offspring for replacement ranch horses. Today there are mustangs competing and winning in almost every area of the show world. Including the English disciplines. That said they still carry the stigma of being "wild horses" and so people shy away from them and that holds the price down. I have a solid black (not a white hair on him) 6 yo gelding in my pasture that if you didn't see the BLM brand you would swear was pure Morgan. The plan is to train him to a buggy and make a parade horse out of him.Z [/QUOTE]
