Clara is a beautiful 16.2hh 6yo quality mare. She has the most lovely temperament, she is kind, genuine, a lovely person to have around and easy to do in all ways.
She is a talented mare, would be good enough to produce up through the levels either sj or eventing. She gives a good feel over a fence and is scopey, careful and bold With fillers/trays. She has had 6months in the field due to me having a baby, and is now back in work, last summer she was jumping round 95/BN double clear and is ready to affiliate BS. She rarely has a pole, and has a natural careful technique over a fence. She is quite a forward horse to jump and can be a little strong, but is never running off.
She has been xc schooled plenty, has jumped clear round the xc on her ODEs good with water/ditches etc, she can be a little Spooky and jump quite extravagantly, but is not ungenuine!
She rides well on the flat and does a nice dressage test, with so much more to come, she is straight moving, with nice paces.
She hacks alone or in company, in fields or roads/rural and busy traffic. She never naps, gets silly and is as close to bombroof in traffic as you can get. She has been ridden on the beach by a possibly slightly nervous (!!) but competent amateur rider and was a total saint.
Clara is a kind, genuine and very safe horse, she went to her first 4yo shows with me soon after I came out of hospital after 3mths from suffering a huge amount of organ damage, she was, as always, level headed and took everything in her stride and made my job incredibly easy and enjoyable to get back out on the horses again.
She has hunted with me with the Fernie and drag packs- while coming to the middle of my pregnancy. She is absolutely always safe, sane and sensible, and while she is not suitable for a total novice, as she is quite forward and has a big jump. she is an absolute dream of you are looking for quality, talent and ability but don’t want the quirky/sharp tendencies of the competition horse.
She has never bucked, reared, napped, bolted. She is good to clip, can be a little stroppy to pull her mane so we go v quick or cut! She loads and travels on Lorries/trailers. Stands at the show, can he handled by small children at shows and events, good to shoe.
She has no vices or health issues. She has the odd scuff/bump on one of her back legs that causes her no issues, and I wouldnt say big enough to call a scar really. An old scrape from kicking a fence post off in the field. No sarcoids, sweet itch, allergies. She’s never had a lame day. She is open to any vetting. She has 2 small white hair marks under her noseband- Presumably from a headcollar rub as a youngster.
