Bullet - 15.1hh, 10yo, Lusitano gelding. Near Bradford, West Yorkshire.
Bullet is an absolutely stunning 15.1hh chestnut Lusitano gelding with the temperament, movement and presence to turn heads everywhere he goes. He’s a top quality horse- forward, intelligent and incredibly rewarding for a confident, kind rider.
Out hacking he’s faultless and pretty much as good as they come. He’ll go alone or in company, in front or behind, he takes all traffic in his stride and will happily stand for ages with no fuss if you make a pub stop. He’s rock solid through villages, fields and open spaces, never silly or strong. You can have a canter or gallop and he’ll stay balanced and polite, coming straight back to you every time and not fizzing up afterwards. He’s the rare sort that you can really trust, even in busy situations.
In the school he’s coming along beautifully. He’s now working in a soft outline in all three paces and developing lovely shape and muscle. His trot is classic lusitano- high knees & good extension but also super adjustable. His canter is smooth and collected, and he is just beginning to learn lead changes and start lateral work. He’s a forward, responsive horse who always tries to please and gives a really dreamy ride when ridden quietly and sympathetically.
He’s barefoot, up to date and good with the farrier and has solid feet. He had the dentist just 3 months ago and also behaved well. Excellent to catch, load, travel, bath and stands and ties quietly to be groomed and pampered. He’s happiest with a gentle approach and quickly builds a strong bond with his rider.

Bullet would suit a confident rider who enjoys a forward, intelligent horse with plenty of talent and character. He’s showing all the qualities of a future dressage horse and is equally lovely to hack and enjoy. I think he would really excel in a dressage home but would be just as equally well suited to a happy hacking home as he is foot perfect with this and genuinely loves to hack.
