Sire is primitive proposal

Prince is a absolutely stunning horse who certainly has the wow factor, he is a true to type lightweight show hunter / working hunter, who has been successfully shown in hand with previous owners, achieving a score of 8.5 as an eventing foal, and being licensed as a stallion. He was gelded at approximately age 3 after collection for stallion AI.

Prince loves to jump and is very bold, He would be a great horse to teach a good amateur the ropes of jumping.
working hunter horse/ amateur event horse. He goes off any stride, and really loves the jumping.

We feel he would also excel in many other areas too, he has been doing bits of dressage the last few years with his current owner, but we feel this discipline on its own is not for Prince, he would enjoy a home were he can get to do bits of everything.

He does require a confident forward thinking rider and is therefore not considered to be a novice ride.

He has excellent ground manners, is good to box (7.5t, 3.5t, trailer), shoe, & clip.

Prince is up to date with dentist, worming, vaccinations.

Only for sale as current owner wants to solely focus on dressage, and this horse needs more variety to keep him focused.

Homebred by a friend of mine (and yes your eyes do not deceive you, his great grandfather really is Shergar).
Bought by myself as an unbroken 4yr old and produced slowly.
He’s been to fun-rides, XC schooling, SJing clinics, unaffiliated SJing and arena eventing (placed in the top 5 every time out). He is yet to do a dressage test, although that’s next on his ‘to-do’ list.
He will jump anything he’s pointed at.
He’s been hacked out by a novice in all weathers with no bother. However he is still green in a competition environment and would need his hand holding in a collecting ring situation. For this reason, please no novice/nervous riders.
With his attractive way of going and sensible trainable attitude he’ll be solid in all 3 phases.
He’s looking for an ambitious teen/adult with dreams of Badminton BE90 championships.
