Mootlite For Cob Sake (Pippa) 155cm 6yo Mare

Pippa is your ultimate all-rounder and the type that will see generations in a family through any discipline. Broken as a 3yo and turned away, she has been professionally produced from a 4 year old. Her achievements to date have far surpassed any expectation I ever had and as such this is a hard decision.

Pippa is an extremely comfortable enjoyable forward ride with 3 well established mannerly paces. Great confirmation with no lumps bumps or blemishes. She is bidable and honest in every sense and loves to jump both SJ & XC. She has schooled over coloured poles at 90cm with plenty of untapped potential in this area as she has a clean, careful and powerful natural jump. Pippa has competed in dressage and behaved impeccably with her most recent score at a local training show in January 2025 of 75%.

Full history is known and while she does not have breeding recorded, she is half Irish Cob (dame) and draught (Sire). Pippa has the most wonderful temperament and is a firm favourite in the yard as she is extremely easy to do anything with including farrier, clipping, travelling, washing, lunging, over-night trips and will happily live in or out.

Pippa loves to hack alone or in company and is the most unflappable mare. She does not take a second look at traffic, animals in fields or other road users and has been used to lead out younger horses because of this strength. Your biggest challenge hacking is a loose rein and high grass as she does like a quick nibble. While, she has already proven her worth in every sense, there is so much more in the tank with Pippa and she is now primed for her next home.

Recent check in’s with Physio and Dentist and no issues.

Pippa does have sweetitch which was known when I bought her. This has been correctly managed with diet, herbal supplements and appropriate rugging. It has only ever been evident in her mane and tail and face and has never manifested on her body. It has never come against her in the ring as once managed, is unnoticeable.

Pippa is currently based in Kilkenny in Ireland.

Moves correct and straight.

No blemishes.

Snaffle mouthed.
