Dancer is a genuine, talented mare who is a pleasure to ride. She is neither too forward nor too slow, works in a soft contact, and has three balanced paces. She has plenty of untapped scope and is extremely honest over a fence, happily jumping anything she is pointed at regardless of stride or fillers.
She would thrive in a competitive home—whether for Riding Club, British Showjumping (BS), or hunting. When taken to arena hires and local shows, she naturally steps up and becomes a little more "flashy" and energetic. While this would excite a competitive rider, it is a bit too much for her current owner.
• Hacking: Brilliant to hack out. She is not spooky and never bucks, rears, or bolts.
• Temperament & Care: Lovely to handle on the ground with manners anyone can manage. She currently lives out in a mixed herd, is clipped with small quiet clippers, and is up to date with vaccinations. She is barefoot at the moment (as all our horses are), though she arrived with shoes and stands quietly for the farrier.
• Reason for Sale: We originally bought Dancer for an older novice lady (Michelle) with every intention of keeping her for life. However, Dancer has too much quality and scope for Michelle, who simply wants a smaller, quieter horse for relaxed local fun shows. Dancer has never done anything dangerous, she is just a lot of horse for Michelle's experience level.
Eligible for ROR, they put her in for 6 races she didn’t complete any as she was to slow.
Full history known.
Videos are available showing Dancer being ridden by a capable adult, a 13-year-old girl, and jumping with Michelle.
This is a very sad sale, so a 5-star home is far more important than price. I truly believe she will go far and give her next rider the utmost fun!
