Bought as a 4-year-old from Ireland, Munro is a lovely, talented horse with a character of his own. He is a pleasure to look after and, when you understand him, a very rewarding chap.
He is very good in all traffic and around farm machinery, happy alone or in company, and comfortable in open spaces. He has attended dressage and show jumping/xcountry clinics, hunt rides and hunted both here and in Ireland and has plenty to offer the right person.
Good to box, shoe, clip and have his teeth done. Ridden in a snaffle, he is a biddable, affectionate character who has become increasingly trusting as I have taken the time to understand him.
Absolutely NOT a novice ride. Munro is a big, young, quirky horse who needs a confident, highly capable and experienced rider with patience and an empathetic approach.
He was bought with grassroots eventing and hunting in mind. He has an enormous jump, is bold and brave both SJ and XC however, I have found hunting stressful for him over the last two seasons. With the right rider, time and continued sympathetic training, he may well be able to overcome his stress trigger and progress further. Unfortunately, I feel he and I are not the right partnership for this, he has just grown too big for me. I would love to find him someone who can bring out his full potential while putting his happiness and confidence first.
Munro does have a medical issue and has an established treatment regime in place which is essential for his ongoing management. His full medical history will be available to genuinely interested, suitable buyers and price will reflect this.
I am looking for a knowledgeable, committed owner who understands both his quirks and his needs and who has the experience to give him the care he deserves and appreciates his talent.
The right home is far more important than the price. This is a difficult decision, and I am looking for someone who will love and understand this very special chap as I do, giving him the time, consistency and sympathetic handling he needs to thrive.
