Attended numerous arena hires over SJ & XC fences proving bold, genuine and very straightforward to a fence. Has previously hunted and hacks out alone or in company. Good in traffic and open spaces.

Jimmy is incredibly trainable and has the sweetest temperament and an attitude that only wants to please. He is a very hard sort to find and a type that could turn his hoof to any job.

I have know him since birth and owned him until he was 7 I broke him in. He is a lovely chap lovely temperament and always willing to please.

We have hunted him he was good on the field stood at the meet good with the hounds and jumps everything. He has been around a course of fences nothing phases him like fillers or anything has 3 lovely paces . Currently being ridden by a 15yr old girl .

In his current home for the last 3 years he has been on a farm so used to all animals and machinery hacks out alone or in company first or last.

I think he would prefer a active home doing a bit of everything. He is low mileage for his age so would suit more a confident experience rider.

Buster was brought over from Ireland from the breeder in 2025, he had been very well handled and had a brilliant start in life and to his education. Since been with us he has been broken to ride slowly taking everything in his stride. He is super chilled and sensible in every environment, used to a hectic yard with other horses feral children, dogs and farm machinery. He has beautiful manners on the ground stands tied anywhere, loads on a wagon or trailer travels on his own or with others very well. He was perfect to clip and shoe, had his teeth done in January and is wormed to date.

Buster is hacking out on his own well, not phased my traffic and confident on his own. He is used to road work and been in open fields absolutely no issue.

We have not asked him for anything in a school as we have slowly started him but Buster has 3 forward up hill balanced paces which are the basic platform for anyone to put their own stamp on. He has a natural head carriage and oozes quality and that look at me presence with a cheeky face. He is snaffle mouthed at all times carries himself beautifully and correctly.

Buster moves straight from the shoulder very correct and flicks a toe, he floats across the ground effortlessly, has the potential for a top quality working hunter or event prospect with his bold inquisitive attitude to life.

Buster has been on group pleasure rides taking everything in his stride from travelling there standing before we set of, was sensible in open spaces in the group environment and travelled home perfectly.

Buster is full of a cheeky loving personality and ready for someone to thoroughly enjoy this summer!

His Sire is a Top Quality Producing Connamara Stallion, Rosscorn Abbey Tomboy who is by Laekens Cascade Dawn, hence where his beautiful movement and temperament come from.
