Rosie is a16h rising 14 year old registered Irish draught chestnut mare. She is incredibly well bred with classic vision and ginger dick directly In her pedigree. She resembles more of an Irish sport horse model but she still has a nice amount of bone and a good depth of girth without being heavy. She is a lovely rich golden colour that glistens in the sunlight beautifully.
She has excellent conformation, clean limbs and very straight movement. She is very eye catching with her lovely rich colour, kind eye, easy going temperament, good conformation, athletic stamp, and cracking ridability. She is a firm yard favourite; everyone who meets her just loves her.
She is a very fun safe alrounder who excels all disciplines and would make the perfect mother/ daughter share, riding club alrounder/ or quality pleasure horse. Horses like Rosie do not come along very often, she is the type very hard to find.
Rosie has 3 super paces which are very correct and well balanced. She is a very straight forward ride who really looks after her rider, she's not the spooky/sharp type. She is a lovely medium speed being nicely responsive to transitions and nicely forward going. She would suit most riders as she is completely uncomplicated. She works in a relaxed natural outline and is always snaffle mouthed. She is nicely schooled on the flat up to elementary level at home with a lovely leg yield, shoulder in and medium trot. She has done some unaffiliated prelim dressage tests where she always receives very promising comments and good scores in the high 60's. She finds her work very easy and she is very light footed on her feet with a real leg in each corner. She is lovely to work with as she always wants to please her rider.
Rosie loves her jumping and is very bold. She makes a super shape over a fence and is very careful, she rarely touches a pole. She nicely takes her rider into the fence. She will jump from trot or canter. She helps her rider out if presented to the fence on the wrong stride. She has jumped round 80cm courses with scope so could jump bigger. She hasn't been over jumped though as her previous owner used to mainly school and hack her. She would excel in a riding club home where she could do sj and pole work clinics. She has also been xc schooling which she loves.
Rosie is a brilliant hack, very safe and very enjoyable. She happily hacks out alone and in company. She is excellent in traffic, she has previously crossed a busy 'a' road roundabout and patiently waited until it is clear to cross. She isn't fazed by lorries passing her etc. However she isn't keen on tractors, so we just pull into a driveway where she calmly stands and waits for it to pass her. She is great in open spaces and sensible. She prefers to be in front when you go for a canter. She has been on long 10 mile hacks and has previously done pleasure rides. She has also been to Holkham beach which she loved and was so much fun. She really is so chilled out and you can really relax on her and enjoy yourself. She loves her hacking very much and is a super safe confidence giving who is nicely forward going.
Rosie has an exceptional quiet temperament, she isn't your usual chestnut mare. She is very quiet to handle and is very polite. She is a very kind and friendly girl who can safely be handled by everyone including children and non-horsey people. She is such an easy girl to have around, she is excellent in all ways to handle, and is regularly brought in from the field by children. She leads like a dog and isn't fazed by anything. She currently stables over night and goes out during the day but also does the reverse during the summer. She loves a routine. She is such a lovely girl who is worth her weight in gold!
Rosie must go to a 10* home where she will be loved and enjoyed. She will make an excellent riding club alrounder or pleasure horse . She really is a lovely genuine girl. She recently passed a 5 stage vetting and xrays that can come with her.
