$600/month ![]() A solid foundation is necessary to have a successful barrel horse. At Valentine Farm we make sure a horse is thoroughly trained on the basics before it starts working the pattern. We have full control of the horse's body before they even see a barrel. This means we have all the forward gears, a great whoa, reverse, lateral moves and control of the shoulders and hips. This foundation is important to have throughout the initial patterning and throughout the horse's entire career to fall back upon when tune-ups or adjustments are made. Our horses are started correct so they can go on and have a long and successful barrel career. If you are just wanting a horse with a great handle and no barrel training we are happy to provide that also. A well trained horse is a pleasure to ride.
