A lovely gent of a horse. Raced and did some P2P, has hunted 3 seasons inc sidesaddle in a past home. Works well on the flat, responsive to aids but not sharp or silly, on the steadier side to school, he is forgiving and will teach someone the ropes of correct schooling. Very rhythmic with good transitions up and down, does some basic lateral work. He'd do a lovely show or dressage test. Loved arena xc, was really in his element jumping everything asked of him and going through the water and up and down steps. Was lovely to take out, again stayed rhythmical throughout and worked happily with an unknown horse sharing the hire without getting clingy. He will jump a showjump type fence quite nicely however he hasn't done much in this area so will sometimes look at the first few, we just do some polework first and he is understanding and getting more confident with what we're asking now. Hacks alone and in company, good in traffic. He can be gawpy over things like drain covers and bags but doesn't make a massive deal out of it, just needs someone that'll fuss him and send him forward. Used to a farm environment, doesn't blink at the tractors/quads/kids etc. Good brakes, the current owner has taken him out hacking round the chase off road with no issue. He has been out to various lessons/clinics/hires. Nice to have around, easy to handle. Good to catch, lead, bath, shoe, clip. Good to load, travels alone or in company, owner has a trailer, we took him out in a sideloading 3.5ton which he needed a minute to get his head around but then loaded and travelled well. He'd love a home for some lower level fun, hacking, fun rides, RC, hunting, someone that wants to get out and have some fun on something up for a job but with manners so you'll have arms left by the end of the day! Up to date with everything. Does occasionally crib but not constantly or heavily, just the odd one. Fitted tack and some rugs included. Price is ono
