Apache seemed to possess all of the requirements necessary to turn in consistently good performances. He had an unusual amount of speed, no end of endurance, and a disposition that caused him to give every task all he had. In a race, he was “up on the bit”, but in a children’s class or in a Ladies Western Pleasure Class, he was easily controlled on a slack rein. He was an equine athlete with the conformation and agility to perform well in a wide variety of events. Apache was used for about everything a western horse can be used for. He was a top calf roping horse, and performed well team roping and cutting.
