A real favourite - Florie is with us in sales livery on behalf of his owner - A long time friend and is genuinely a heartbreaking sale.

A few years ago I had the honour of riding him at a family members funeral where he did everyone proud by leading the procession through a busy high street, waiting patiently at the ceremony and stood like a rock at the graveside. The way this gentleman conducted himself that day will never leave my memory.

Aside his willingness the aforementioned day - Floris has a great CV again proving his versatility to go and achieve in any sphere.

Plenty of ribbons have been collected over the years from his performance between the white boards. Straight moving, correct and supple. Exactly what he was bred to be. A performance horse performing. Having mainly competed unaffiliated purely down to his owners wishes and no direct relation to his ability he is a blank canvas for anyone wanting to open him up a BD record with lots more frillies to be won.

Jumping - His temperament matches his trainability and with a level head his is able
To negotiate show jumping courses ans XC fences with ease. A big natural pop with lots of scope. Again a great natural technique. Having attended plenty of RC training days, lessons as well as being based for a while with a professional rider all the foundations are in place for a BS career or of course a continuation of a lower level unaffiliated should new owners wish

Has hunted well with a hillside pack and over galloping country. Both of which he really enjoyed really country was no issue for him and his careful steady mentality. Again in faster country he wasn't strong nor silly and stood patiently at the meet while his rider enjoyed the hospitality.

Hacking is a much enjoyed past time for Flo - confident alone and in company. Unfazed by heavy traffic road marking etc a happy hacking home would be right up his street.

Turns out with mares and geldings and isn't worried about coming in away from his friends or being out with shetlands to shires. A kind boy who just wants to be everyone best friend.

Stable manners are to die for - has spent many years based on a busy yard, Floris is used to children farm machinery cats and dogs. You name it he's seen it ! Loves to be brushed fussed kissed and cuddled - infact this is part of the terms and conditions of his new home - he must be very much loved.

Loads and travels like a dream. On and off the trailer his laid back attitude to life shines through.

Vaccinated, wormed and shod to date
Chiro and physio appointments have been routinely done.

Does have a small sarcoid on his sheath - this has been part of him for many years. Has never grown or expanded. And never worsened. Does not affect him in the slightest.

No health issues and no stable vices
Never sick not sorry and infact hes a hard cob type in a quality warmbloods body.

No loans or trials sorry
Nationwide delivery options available
Open to any vetting

Viewings are welcomed - getting his right for Florie and his owner is very very important for everyone involved.
