Features of the 4 Star 2+1 Gooseneck

8′ Tall Interior

An 8′ height is taller than many horse trailers. Extra headroom helps tall horses balance, lift their heads and travel with less stress, and it makes the trailer feel open and inviting for horses that are nervous about loading.

EZ Lift Ramps

EZ Lift ramps are designed to be easier to raise and lower. A ramp is a great option for young horses, older horses and any horse that prefers not to step up into a trailer.

WERM Floor

The WERM floor is a seamless rubber flooring system designed to cushion horses’ legs and provide good footing. Because it is a one-piece surface, it is also easier to clean than loose mats.

Sliding Divider

The sliding divider lets you change the space in the trailer. Set it up for two stalls plus a box, or open it up to give a horse more room. This flexibility is the heart of a 2+1 trailer.

Quiet Ride

A quiet ride means less rattling and road noise in the horse area, which helps horses stay calmer and arrive less stressed.

Walk Thru Door and Carpeted Tack Room

The walk thru door connects the tack room and horse area, so you can check on horses or grab gear without going outside. Carpeted walls in the tack room let you hang tack without scratching it.

Hydraulic Jack

A hydraulic jack makes hitching and unhitching quick and easy.

What Is a 2+1 Horse Trailer?

A 2+1 horse trailer combines two standard stalls with one larger box stall. You can haul two horses in standard stalls and still have a bigger space for a horse that needs more room.

Many owners use the box stall for a mare and foal. Others use it for a horse on stall rest, a horse that travels better loose or a horse heading to a clinic or vet visit. With a sliding divider, the 4 Star 2+1 Gooseneck lets you set the space up for each trip.

Hauling a Mare and Foal

A box stall is one of the best ways to haul a mare and foal together. Load the mare first so the foal follows calmly, bed the stall well for good footing and check on the pair at every stop. The tall interior and cushioned WERM floor make the trip easier on both.

Using a Ramp Safely

Lower the ramp on firm, level ground so it sits flat and does not rock. Walk the horse straight up the center at a steady pace, and give nervous horses time to look and sniff before asking them to step on. After loading, raise and latch the ramp securely before you move on to the next horse.

Check ramp hinges, springs and the ramp surface regularly, and keep the ramp clean so horses always have good footing.

Putting the 4 Star 2+1 Gooseneck to Work

Think about a typical weekend. On Saturday you haul to a clinic, on Sunday you head to the trails, and midweek you make a quick trip to the vet. One reliable trailer handles all of it.

Because everything has its place, packing and unpacking are quick, and your horses travel in a familiar space each time. That kind of everyday reliability is what owners appreciate most about the 4 Star 2+1 Gooseneck.
