The type everyone wants , needs, and won’t find again too easily! 16hh, 15yo, Scotish sports horse gelding. No bumps , lumps, blemishes or vices. Totally uncomplicated , low maintenance and easy to own.
Cody is the loveliest chap around! Live in or out, a very good doer. Fantastic to clip , shoe, load and travel, catch, bath, tack up, groom , etc ! He really is very easy for any member of the family to see to
A great CV behind him to include ;
Being in a riding school , BE record , BS record , BD record , teaching novices , and being our yard ‘go to’ for all occasions and a range of different riders
Hacks out fantastically well. Brilliant in traffic , never buzzy in company or in open spaces and loves to pop logs etc
Can give the rider a little test on his own. Nothing to shout joke about but will test that boundary with a new or less able jockey
Can work beautifully on the flat with a comment jockey , will equally go around on the buckle. Very much a leg on rider and has recently been teaching very novice young girl on our yard to get her riding trot and start cantering. Has obedient walk to canter , simple changes , always in a snaffle , basic understanding of lateral work. We know we will never be able to replace this bit but sadly he’s a bit wasted with us as we have no consistent job for him and we feel he’s missing out
Cody is extremely honest, bold , and brave to jump. He will never say no, naturally careful and very level headed. He’s jumped a couple of 1m10’s in his prime however I think he’s more of a reliable and fun little school master around the 80/90’s. Have recently taken him to wales and west myself and jumped around the amateur 75cm for the weekend for pure fun and what fun we had!! Exceptionally well behaved at stay away shows. I enjoyed reliving my pony days with hand brake turns , kicking, and being far too competitive. He was DC and 4th out over 80 starters ! I’ve also had numerous DC unaffiliated placings with him. He’s a pleasure to take out and will never let you down
Jumps any XC fence and loves it. Remains his extremely mannerly self always.
Cody has been known to get very unsettled and buzzy out hunting so I’d say that’s not the job for him
Although he has a novice riding him at the moment , he can occasionally get more lively at shows etc. Nothing at all nasty, he’s a very straight forward horse and extremely versatile. He’d be perfect for someone confident although at home , you can put a beginner on all day long!
You won’t find him again, I nearly guarantee it! Not at this money anyway!!!
A good home is an absolute necessity for this outstanding little horse with a huge heart. I’m not going to be favourable with my yard girls but I feel this is the best for the horse and ultimately, he deserves to come first!!
