Don Placido (Donald), 16.2hh 14yo Danish Warmblood Bright Bay Gelding by Don Romantic (Donnerhall).
Has done it all, RC, UA DR, SJ and eventing up to 90 and plenty of beach and fun rides in current home with amateur rider. Winning machine always in the ribbons and top percentage of the day, consistently above 70%, scoring 8s and 9s, highest score to date 81%. Won Riding Club Area Dressage, top 10 placing Cotswold Cup eventing.
Super talented horse with low mileage. Has great presence and 3 big, elastic paces. Established lateral work, very adjustable with a super trainable attitude. He loves his work! Enjoys his jumping and is very careful with his feet.
Good to shoe, bath, clip, catch, self loads, easy traveller. Often taken out competing by myself and stands happily on the box, easy to do on your own out and about. Impeccable ground manners and a complete softie. Hacks alone and in company. Good with traffic and farm machinery. Happy in or out, on quieter or busy competitions yards. No vices. Up to date with farrier, dentist, vaccinations, physio etc. Full vet history known.
Owned for 5 years, previously in a dressage home, fantastic BD record to Elementary, schooled to advanced medium. Forward ride, takes confidence from rider in new situations, and for that reason wouldn’t recommend him for a complete novice. He is a schoolmaster and can do it, you just have to ask properly! Thrives on regular work, but is sensible being ridden after a break.
Much loved horse only for sale as I’m moving away with new job and won’t have the time to do him justice. Advertising now to allow time to find Donald a forever home, will be kept in full work. Sound, fit and ready to go out competing straight away.
Tack and wardrobe available separately.
Based in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Can be trialled in Broadway, Worcestershire on request.
