Bee - 16.2 11yr ISH mare. Bee has been in her current home nearly 6 years as a mother daughter share doing RC level SJ and dressage as well as hacking/schooling.
A sad sale due to daughter's loss of interest and mum no longer riding.
She schools nicely with balanced paces, good transitions and is forward (i.e doesn't need continuously nagging along!) without being sharp or sensitive, with a soft mouth. She'd do a nice dressage test or show piece.
She'll look after someone for the basics or step up for someone wanting to ask for a bit more, we have been playing with some walk to canter and basic changes. She enjoys work and is eager to please.
She enjoys polework and jumping, she takes you into a fence, is genuine and will take a miss. She's also happy to trot in for someone more nervous until they're ready to ask for more. We've popped her up to around 80cm with her vet history in mind, see below.
She hacks alone and in company and enjoys going out and about. She looks at the odd genuinely 'scary' thing (a bonfire the other day!) but a fuss and asked to go forward and she isn't silly and will go for you. We're quite rural so she is more used to lanes rather than busy, fast main roads but we've had cars/vans/bikes/motorbikes/little lorries pass us with no issue, and at home she passes tractors etc, we just haven't seen any out and about yet! although she sees the farm machinery, quad etc round the yard. She doesn't mind passing sheep/cows etc. She'll go for a wander on the buckle in open spaces or enjoys going for a canter, with brakes!
She's believed to have done some hunting in her previous home.
She's lovely on the ground, a real people person! She's easy to do and have around and settled well.
She's good to catch/lead/clip/bath/shoe/load/travel/dentist etc.
She's happy in or out, does like her creature comforts if the weather is crappy.
She has good manners and is an all round nice person.
She unfortunately does have some arthritic changes in her neck. This is managed mainly with common sense! Hay from the floor, physio etc. She did have injections last September.
She did a check ligament last year but this has healed well and she is now back in full work as she was before.
With these in mind we are looking for a fun, all round lower level home as a best mate and pleasure horse with a varied life, or a home for fun rides/hacking/beach trips etc.
She's utd withvaccs/dentist/worming/shoeing.
Suitable, long term home is of top priority. No loans/trials
Tack available by seperate neg
She is a sales livery on behalf of a client.
