16.3hh, rising 5, Chestnut mare by Poker de mariposa out of Bonhamon Bluebee
Due to hand injury and a change in circumstances I am looking to find Flora a new home!
Flora is a very sweet, intelligent mare that I purchased as a two year old from a friend in the hope to produce and show jump.
She was lightly backed in 2023 and turned away, brought back into work last year and started schooling, popping some fences and hacking in company and alone round our fields before being turned away over winter. I brought her back into work at the start of the year and she was still as quiet as ever, showing nice promise on the flat and good scope over a fence. I have completed all her education on my own which alone speaks volumes in my opinion, she’s 16.3hh I’m 4’9ft and about 8 and a half stone and she’s been incredibly easy! I have produced her with longevity in mind and her size, she has not been rushed and is very raw for her age perfect for someone to put their stamp on.
She is straight forward and looks to please, she’s big striding and takes everything on, not spooky or easily bothered! Has been ridden by a 13 year old and used to nanny the spooky babies round the field.
Her first week back into work this year the air ambulance landed two fields away and she carried on her 20m canter circles like nothing was going on, whilst I tried to video the whole event in shock.
This sale does not come easy, I’m heartbroken, and her home is very important to me. I will not sell to a dealer and would like her to go to someone that will continue her education and get her out jumping and allow me to maintain contact (I’m not going to hassle you, I’d just like to see what she’s up to).
She is good to do, very laid back, clipped out last year in full with half face no sedation and didn’t budge. Her only let down is she does windsuck during meal times, if she has a collar on she doesn’t. It’s not something that has bothered me as she’s always been on private yards!
