I’ve owned this lovely mare since she was three, and parting with her is an incredibly sad decision. Unfortunately, my growing work commitments mean I simply don’t have the time she deserves.
She was Champion in-hand as both a yearling and a four-year-old and, while her competitive ridden career has been light due to my studies and work, she has always been a dream to take out. She stands quietly on the lorry or trailer, is mannerly at shows, and has enjoyed a variety of activities including ridden showing, fun rides, dressage, and working hunter.
Under saddle she schools beautifully, light and responsive in the hand. She loves her jumping and has been happily schooling courses, fillers and bullfinches at home, though she remains a little green simply due to lack of competition experience.
She hacks alone and in company, both on the road and in open spaces. While she is a touch more confident with company, she is never silly on her own. She is also excellent to handle in every way — good to load, travel, clip, shoe, bath, catch, and with the dentist. She is fully up to date with vaccinations, teeth and physio.
She does have very mild sweet itch, but it is easily managed with rugs, creams, and shampoo, which will all come with her. It barely affects her, just a little in her forelock (reflected in price). Given her quality, I would also consider a home where she may be used as a broodmare in future, as I believe she would make an excellent mother.
She will be sold with her full wardrobe and tack. This is a genuine, kind-hearted mare who has so much more to give, and she deserves a home that can enjoy her to her full potential.
