Description:
Meet Cloud 9’s Don’t Be Jelly “Jellybean”
2013 | 15.1h | Double Registered AWSSR/FSA
50% AQHA × 50% Friesian Mare
Barefoot, UTD on everything.
Jellybean is the kind of mare you don’t come across often; sooty buckskin wrapped in dapples.
She’s been shown through First Level Classical and Western Dressage schooling, second level movements, and Jump schooled 2ft.
She’s not just about the arena; Jellybean has been ridden down beaches, conquered trail obstacle challenges, and takes traffic, cattle, tractors, flags, and even gunfire in stride. Trick-trained too, she’ll bow, smile, lie down, and show off at liberty.
Honest and forward-thinking, she’s safe enough to be used in lessons, yet responsive enough to be a confident rider who enjoys a horse with feel.
She’ll side-pass to meet you at the mounting block, open gates with ease, and stand quietly wherever you put her.
She’s a dream to have in the barn as well — clean, seriously, goes all in the back corner. 👑
Quiet and completely vice-free. Microchipped, 6-panel N/N, lifetime USDF number, and clean X-rays on file. No maintenance, no issues, just a truly versatile,
well-cared-for mare.
Jelly loves a confident kid and is game for anything, though she’s likely a bit too forward for Grandma unless she likes the wind in her hair. She’s got a big Friesian canter, she’s very respectful, and has a big stride.
We raised and trained her ourselves, and she’s only available as our focus has shifted to Appaloosa Ranch horse events. She’s incredibly special and will make someone’s dream horse.
Jellybean is the kind of unicorn everyone looks for and hardly anyone finds. Here’s what makes her truly special.

Jellybean is exceptionally trick-trained and an absolute joy to ride. She:
• Lays down on request for easy mounting

Safe, Dependable & Versatile
She is genuinely suitable for any level of rider. Jellybean has been used in a lesson program, leased by students, and trusted to take care of whoever is on her back. She is athletic enough for more advanced riders yet quiet enough for beginners. Forward but safe, safe, safe.

An Honest, Solid Citizen
English, Western, bareback—even backward—she does it all.
Dependable, consistent, and the same whether she’s ridden daily or has time off. She self-loads into the trailer, even in the dark.
