Sandyman is a beautiful chestnut gelding with 4 white stockings. Had a good racing career in Ireland and was always a yard favourite.
Sandy is a lovely horse to have on the yard, he is lovely to deal with and sweet tempered- doesn’t get hot or silly being stabled and is a gent to lead about the yard and to the field.
He loves to jump and has plenty of care for a pole and a cross country fence. Lovely technique over a jump and bold over fillers. He now just needs to strengthen up over grids- has a good canter for showjumping and is relatively calm to a fence (he is still an ex race horse!) he has been to arena hire and a training show and he proved to be an old hat at the game! He is brave and genuine over xc fences and has attended a hunter trial and jumped round clear.
Sandy is happy to work in the school. He is very rideable and has a rhythmical canter. He is beginning to lower his head carriage, however he doesn’t yet work on the bridle- Rome wasn’t build in a day! But he has the right attitude and attributes to progress to ride a lovely dressage test.
Sandy isn’t spooky atall, we are on a busy farm and there is ALOT to look at!
Sandy hacks alone and in company- although we have found him better in company! He has absolutely no malice in him atall and happy to discuss further with prospective buyers, but if a less experienced home would prefer him to go somewhere where there was the option of riding out in company.
He is fabulous in ALL traffic and bikes.
He is good to shoe, and is recently shod. I haven’t clipped him as he has a beautiful summer coat. He has had his teeth done and was great for the dentist.
He is happy living in or out, and happy turned out alone or in a herd.
He is good to load, travel and stand on the lorry waiting. He finished racing sound and has no known health issues. He is open to any vetting.
A great home is much sought after for this lovely boy, he is a much thought of horse and previous owners in Ireland would like to stay in touch. He does very quietly have a little weave at feed time- it is v discreet as was unnoticed for several days when he arrived! Home v important
