Freddie is a full up 16h 6 year old piebald Irish gelding (Irish Draught x cob). He is sadly for sale on behalf of his owner.
Freddie is a one in a million horse of a life time who excels at everything he does and has the most wonderful polite quiet temperament to match with manners to burn. He is a much sought after type as maxi cobs like Freddie are extremely rare to find especially cobs as quality, ridable and with such amazing temperaments. He is a quality middle/heavy weight stamp with a lovely deep girth and a nice amount of bone without being too heavy. He would be suited to a lady, man or teenager as he is big enough to carry a man yet very light in the hand for a lady/teenager to easily manage. He really stands out from the crowd wherever he goes and has an amazing presence and kind eye. He has very good conformation, straight movement and is blemish free. He is the full package to excel across all riding disciplines which makes him the perfect alrounder.
Freddie schools beautifully on the flat and has a presence and athleticism about him where you just can’t stop watching him. He has three very good balanced paces with an incredible canter, it is very uphill and extremely comfortable- you could sit to it all day! He works in a beautiful natural outline. He is very light and soft in the hand and works very nicely up to the contact from between leg and hand. He gives his rider a very nice true feeling of contact. He is always snaffle mouthed. He is a lovely responsive nicely forward going ride who gives you a beautiful feeling. He has been ridden by a range of different riders from a 13 year old girl up to a 60 year old lady. He is not suitable for a nervous or novice rider as he is a responsive ride and appreciates and deserves a competent rider. He is working at novice/elementary level dressage at home and does a lovely walk to canter. He has competed a handful of times at unaffiliated preliminary and novice dressage with very good scores in the 70 percent region and promising judge comments. He is ready to affiliate and work his way through the levels. He has a lot of potential to excel as a dressage horse as he has super movement combined with a very trainable sensible brain. He puts a big smile on his riders face as he is such a comfortable fun ride who just loves to work and give.
Freddie enjoys jumping and makes a very nice shape. He nicely takes you into a fence and is very honest and genuine to jump. He will happily trot or canter into jumps and he gives his rider an amazing feeling. He gives his rider so much confidence to jump as he really helps you out and will jump on a missed stride and has never refused or ran out. He has jumped both show jumps and xc and is very genuine over both. He has taken his rider from nervously jumping 80cm courses to confidently jumping around 1m10 show jumps and cross country cross country fences and filling her with confidence. He is extremely ridable into and away from a jump; he maintains the same rhythm and doesn’t get excitable and silly. He has plenty of scope to go higher as he is a clean jumper and rarely touches a pole. He is a real xc machine, so ridable and so bold and genuine, he jumps everything he meets and is often used to give green and less experienced horses a lead. It’s so rare to find a cob as athletic as what Freddie is. He would make a super eventer as he excels at all 3 disciplines and he is so much fun! He would equally be very suitable for someone wanting to jump British Novice and Discovery.
Freddie is lovely to hack both alone and in company. He has done a lot more hacking in company than alone, he is well used to being in a big group where he remains very calm and sensible. He is great in traffic including tractors. He is very sensible in open spaces and not at all sharp. You can really relax on him and enjoy your ride. He will happily canter in any order within a group in a calm sensible manner and gives his rider a real arm chair ride. He has been on lots of pleasure/pub rides where he is such a pleasure. He would be the ideal type to take on horse holidays as he is very well behaved to ride at new places and just has so much fun to offer someone. He is brilliant to ride on the beach and loves going in the sea for a splash around.
Freddie is the perfect hunt horse. He has hunted in Ireland with the Kilmoganny Hunt for 2 seasons with a small mature lady where he was foot perfect. He is a real gentleman at the meet and stands patiently on the buckle end of the reins. He goes in any order within the field and doesn’t get strong or silly. He happily hangs back with the children and non- jumpers and opens gates ect. He jumps drains, ditches, large hedges, wooden timbres, into water without batting an eye. He is an extremely comfortable armchair ride who has the stamina to keep going all day. There are lots of videos of Freddie hunting available on the Kilmoganny Hunt facebook group and lots of photos also to show just how amazing he is.
Freddie has a very kind personality and quiet and gentle temperament. He puts a smile on your face every day. He is the most mannerly horse that I have ever met. He loves people and will make someone an amazing best friend. He is always good to catch and lead in. He loves all the attention of being groomed and pampered. He is very easy to handle in all ways. He loads perfectly on any type of transport and travels like a dream. He’s great to take out and rides the same in new places as he does at home. He is a real calming influence on the other horses at the yard. He lives in or out and mixes well with other horses or turns out individually next to others. He really is a dream to look after on the ground, even non horsey people can manage to do Freddie.
Freddie must sell to a 10* home where he will be adored and enjoyed. He is the ultimate allrounder / hunter- the type that everyone is looking for. He would be very suitable for someone wanting to go out competing in any discipline and have fun together. He would also suit a home wanting to do all riding club activities and eventing as well as making a pure dressage horse. This is a very sad sale of my client’s dream horse due to her knee injury. I am also very fond of Freddie as I sourced him myself from Ireland last year and have been very involved with him ever since. We would very much like to stay in contact with Freddie. Freddie passed a 5 stage vetting in November which can come with him and he is also open to be re-vetted. He will make someone a horse of a life time!
