Rare opportunity to purchase an absolutely top class HoYs / RIHS heavyweight show hunter and ladies side saddle horse. He is for sale with rides available at The Royal International and Horse of the Year Show 2024. He has also qualified for the 2024 Irish Draft National Champs.
H is a complete gentleman who is having a very successful career with a focus on showing and dressage both astride and side saddle with too many wins to mention. In the showing ring his sparkle and manners shine through every time. He does a fantastic but controllable extension.
His newly found dressage career has flourished where he competes successfully at elementary regularly achieving over 70%. He is currently working to medium with accomplished simple changes
H is an extremely easy going horse who puts his heart into everything he is asked to do from being professionally ridden at HoYs, RI and Hartbury to allowing his nervous lady owner to do low level dressage, schooling clinics and hacking alone or in company.
He qualified for HoYs and the RI while being home produced. He does not need hours of working in.
Can be seen at Great Yorkshire, Scottish Horse Show, Stoneleigh and the RI with Kirsty Aird.
Unless competing, H is always a snaffle ride and is easy to do in every way - catch, shoe, bath, clip, loading, dentist and regular injections.
Only for sale due to change of direction
A selection of quality tack maybe available
Endless photos and videos available along with more detail on his completion results
