Lesters Live Wire
Lesters Live Wire
Lester Ranches and Lori Lester are proud to offer Lester's Live Wire a 2010 AQHA stallion with the size, speed, and athletic ability suitable for many disciplines. Tuffy is already siring versatile horses for not only barrel racing but ranch work, roping and the show ring. His size and good bone structure matches perfectly with his kind disposition that foal owners are raving about. An injury early on prevented him from competing but he had been on track to futurity in the barrel pen and showed great speed and talent. If you are looking for a stallion to add size, speed, and trainablity Lesters Live Wire is a great choice.
