𝙿𝚊𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗 𝚂𝚒𝚡 𝙶𝚘𝚘𝚍𝚋𝚢𝚎 – 2021 AQHA Gelding | 15.1hh | Buckskin

This gelding checks 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 box: conformation, athleticism, temperament, pedigree, and a drop-dead gorgeous golden coat that turns heads. Gambler is a stunning buckskin with the kind of presence that makes you look twice, and he has the brains and disposition to back up the beauty. 

Bred for greatness, he is sired by none other than 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘎𝘖𝘖𝘋𝘉𝘠𝘌 𝘓𝘈𝘕𝘌 — the #1 leading barrel sire in the industry with over $14 million in offspring earnings. The Goodbye Lane’s offspring are lighting up the barrel racing world with his foals including multiple record-setting champions such as Kassie Mowry's "Force The Goodbye" whom she rode to a 2024 NFR world champion title. The Goodbye Lanes foals are known for their athleticism, good minds, and winning ways. Gambler’s dam, 𝘉𝘚 𝘍𝘙𝘌𝘕𝘊𝘏𝘔𝘕𝘚𝘗𝘈𝘊𝘒𝘐𝘕𝘐𝘛, brings just as much to the table: she’s a proven 1D barrel mare by the legendary 𝘍𝘙𝘌𝘕𝘊𝘏𝘔𝘈𝘕𝘚 𝘎𝘜𝘠, an iconic $14-million sire of barrel horses, and out of a daughter of 𝘗𝘈𝘊𝘒𝘐𝘕 𝘚𝘐𝘟𝘌𝘚. With this powerhouse pedigree on both sides, Gambler is truly bred in the purple and it shows – he is the epitome of elite bloodlines and the definition of quality. He was bred to win — and he has all the tools to back it up. 

Gambler is paid into all the major barrel racing incentive programs including the Pink Buckle, Ruby Buckle, Royal Crown, Diamond Classic, VGBRA, C-N Futurity, Colorado Classic, SW Desert Classic, and the Barrel Breeders Incentive – and he’s eligible for Riata Buckle, Breeders Challenge, Select Stallion Stakes, Tomorrows Legends, Top Shelf Breeders, and Future Fortunes. 

Under saddle, Gambler is fancy broke with a reining-type handle. Sliding stops, snappy turnarounds, one-handed neck rein, sidepassing, lead departures, soft in the face, responsive to leg — he’s got the buttons. He moves fluidly through all three gaits and is very responsive to his rider. Gambler spent 90 days with 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐞, one of the industry’s top futurity and derby horse trainers, known for producing NFR qualifiers, American qualifiers, arena record holders, and futurity/derby champions, including KN Preachin Bout JLO, the #8 top money earning futurity horse of 2023. Gambler is confident, balanced, stylish, and smooth to ride — with enough personality to be competitive, but a kind, honest heart that makes him easy to love. He has been hauled, exhibitioned, and handles new places with a calm, willing attitude and is ready to go on with for the 2026 futurity season. In addition to his arena foundation, this gelding has been exposed to ranch work and other events: he’ll lope a nice set of poles, has been tracking the roping dummy, and has even tracked a few calves out of the box. He’s pushed cattle and checked fences on the ranch and knows what a day’s work is. 

Perhaps one of Gambler’s greatest attributes is his personality. He’s confident with a BIG presence (and yes, he knows he’s cool), yet he remains easygoing, gentle, and genuinely wants to please. He has even been ridden by kids as young as 7, and he took great care of his young riders. Great with time off, this gelding saddles up and rides off the same every time. Gambler's calm, agreeable nature combined with a touch of pizazz gives him enough fire and talent for a competitive rider to make a mark in the futurity world, but he’s also kind and forgiving enough that a youth or amateur can easily ride him around. Gambler truly has a good mind and a golden disposition, making him the type that you're excited to work with every day. On the ground, Gambler is safe and easy to handle. He will meet you at the gate for attention and loves people. He loads and unloads calmly, travels well, stands tied quietly, and is great to groom and tack up. In the herd or standing tied with other horses, Gambler gets along with everyone. 

Gambler is 100% sound and s e l l s with a full set of X‑rays. He is up to date on all care including dental, farrier, deworming, etc. This is not a horse I planned to offer anytime soon. Gambler is the barn favorite and one I truly expected to keep — but with vet school ahead, I know he deserves the time and schedule I can’t give him. He’s ready to go on and be someone’s next 𝘸𝑖𝘯𝑛𝘦𝑟. This is a rare chance to own a horse like Gambler — he’s got heart to spare, a golden personality to match his coat, and truly unlimited potential. Potential buyers are encouraged to come meet Gambler in person — we’d love to show you how special he really is.
