- ID x TB
- Bay
- Mare
- 5 years
- 14.2 hands
- Rising 5, by the well known stallion My Eclipse (son of Shaab) out of an ID mare, fab temperament
- Currently standing between 14.2hh and 14.3hh and bum high
- Backed and riding away, loving hacking out, ready to produce. Up to date with everything.
A very sweet young mare with a nice start and the breeding and temperament to develop into a fab small allrounder, Oti is confident and kind. A compact type with a willing attitude, backed and straightforward to do, she's not been rushed and is a genuine blank canvas ready for someone to produce and put their own stamp on her.
Owned since she was 1 (direct from her breeder at Tremayne Irish Draughts in Cornwall), she's a fabulous and much-loved little mare.
She is currently between 14"2/14"3 and short coupled - she'll take a 16.5" saddle maximum. This is the only reason she's for sale as she just hasn't grown big enough for me, she wouldn't be going anywhere if she had grown a hand bigger.
She has recently been professionally backed proving very straightforward to do, and is currently riding away sensibly at her backing yard in Cornwall where she is in work 5 days a week, mostly hacking out.
Oti is already a pleasure to have out and about:
- She's done plenty of groundwork including lots of long lining. Easy on the ground, on the yard, in the stable.
- Obviously very green but a very sensible head for her age, she is proving brave, willing, and not phased by things
- Should make a proper 'have a go at anything' sort.
- Hacking out and genuinely enjoys it; is the same whether she goes first or last and has been out alone around the farm with no problems.
- Confident being in the indoor school but still extremely green.
- Good in all traffic seen so far, including tractors.
She is:
- Level-headed, biddable, and should prove easy to produce.
- A friendly people person, generally wants to be with you and involved in whatever you're doing.
- Good with other horses, easy with any routine or management.
- Great with the farrier, has always been barefoot and regularly trimmed, up to date with this.
- Great with the vet, up to date with vaccinations, teeth, worming. Wolf teeth removed a couple of years ago.
- Fine in her stable and with being left whilst others go out.
- Easy to catch: has always come to call, follows you around the field.
- Confident with new experiences & takes things in her stride.
- Kind with children, good with dogs (has been used to lots of dogs since I've had her).
- Not phased by machinery and tractors (we had lots of work done on the yard whilst she was a baby and she was super interested in watching it all).
She is realistically priced due to her relative lack of experience to date:
- She's backed & riding away but hasn't been out to shows / seen much of the world yet.
- I've never clipped her or bathed her, I don't think she'd have a problem with either (she's had the back of clippers all over her whilst on with no issues) but she's never done it.
- She's an inexperienced traveller because I've never had transport.
- She's got a cold splint that has never caused any issues, from hooning around being a youngster on lots of land in the spring last year.
Location:
Located in Cornwall between Falmouth & Helston at her backing yard, she's in regular ridden work and her price will increase the more she does.
Who she'd suit:
Oti would suit a small adult who is comfy in a 16.5" saddle max, who is kind, confident and experienced and who's looking for an easy little mare to produce this summer. No novices purely due to her age; she deserves a balanced confident rider capable of furthering her education. She'll turn her hoof to lots of things, should be a lovely all rounder.
