Throughout the years, we have all seen the great horses of Hollywood. Growing up watching the noble steeds of cowboy heroes, etched into our brains the idea of an iconic wonder horse like Roy Roger’s Trigger, The Lone Rangers Hi-Ho Silver, or John Wayne’s beloved Duke! In order to thrive on set, these horses truly had to be just as amazing in real life as they were on the big screens. They carried iconic western stars on cattle drives, cutting cows from the herd for branding, chasing bad guys through mountain passes and across barren plains, or simply to town for supplies. Even a movie and TV cowboy could not survive without a good, broke horse. In fact, actors and stunt riders’ lives depend on their horses being reliable, even tempered, and highly-trained. These Hollywood Hoofbeats are made timeless by their unwavering dedication, and recognizable presence on and off screen.

Affectionately nicknamed “Sully” (from Monsters Ink) by his horse handlers on set, this long maned, short faced buckskin gelding is the horse that has loped right out of the set of your favorite western series, and into your dreams! Sully is a 2014 15.3 hand Registered American Quarter Horse Gelding that is the epitome of the “been there done that” style- with a captivating resume to boot! This hardy, ranch built gelding has been ridden by some of the most notable cowboys actors of our day. Featured in Yellowstone, Sully was ridden by recognizable characters like Cole Hauser’s legendary Rip, and even Josh Lucas as Young John Dutton in a various flashbacks in Season 5. Notable for his role in Sweet Home Alabama, Josh Lucas had told the horse handlers that if he didn’t live in Los Angeles, that Sully would be coming home with him! But this geldings movie career didn’t stop there! Sully was also ridden by Tim McGraw through the Yellowstone origin story series 1883! Being on set encompasses many challenges- more than what would meet the eye! Imagine running the same gunfight scene over and over, running full speed manned by an actor who would most likely be an inexperienced hand. ๐๐ช๐ก๐ก๐ฎ ๐ฌ๐๐จ ๐ฃ๐ค๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐ค๐ง ๐ฃ๐๐ซ๐๐ง ๐จ๐ค๐ช๐ง๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ค๐ฃ ๐จ๐๐ฉ ๐ค๐ง ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐ก ๐ฉ๐ค ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฌ๐ค๐ช๐ก๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ค๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐ซ๐๐ง ๐ฌ๐๐จ ๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐จ ๐๐๐๐ !

This guy is as fun as he looks, safe for absolutely anyone, and will make you feel like a movie star every time you swing a leg over him. Sully gives new meaning to the phrase “bombproof”. Whether you are out on the trail, or encounter random gunfire- this guy is built for the job! If you want to ride through the pasture, town, or in the mountains, Sully will take care of you. He is smooth to ride at every gate, and also has a slow pleasure-like trot. He is one hand broke, and will yield his shoulders, hips, side pass, work a gate, stop, and backup with ease. This is the same horse everyday, and will be the same horse in and out of the arena. He is very careful footed, and is seasoned to rough country, steep inclines, and all sorts of obstacles.

There aren’t very many things Sully hasn’t done, and from Texas to Montana, he will always sport a great attitude in new or unfamiliar environments. From hauling to town, trail rides or the arena- Sully packs so much experience, and is truly the kind you can trust day in and day out. He remains calm in the heat of battle.
