Kevin is a 14.1hh 7yo Cremello Cob Gelding who is looking for his new home due to his rider outgrowing him. Kevin is a safe ‘been there done it’ type who will step up or down for his rider.
Kevin has been in the same home for 16 months and helped his rider come from being nervous to canter to competing in SJ, Dressage, XC and attending many Pony Club Rallies and PC Camp. He can be a leg on type of ride to look after a novice rider or can be spiced up by a more experienced rider if needed.
Kevin makes a great shape over a fence and has competed up to 80cm and jumped DC and placed in 50,60 and 70cm Showjumping, he has jumped up to 105cm at home. Not phased by fillers or water trays. He has placed 3rd in a PC 70cm Hunter Trial and schooled at many different venues across the South East. Jumps ditches, steps, banks and water etc no issue.
On the flat Kevin has three athletic paces and schools sweetly up to Novice/ Ele level. This has not been his riders focus but despite this he has still placed with respectable scores at Prelim, including qualifying for the PC Regionals - scoring 67% there. With more of a focus on flatwork, I believe he could be competitive at Ele and even produce a Medium test.
Kevin loves to hack and goes alone and in company round the fields, on the downs, beach and roads. Will hack on the buckle or enjoy a canter - goes first or last. He can have the odd spook or shy but is known as Mr Reliable in the yard and will often be used to ‘nanny’ young or tricky horses and has been hacked by complete novices and people who have never ridden before.
He is also good to catch, clip, load, travel and shoe. Only shod in front and travels in both a trailer and a 10t lorry here. Passed a 5 stage vet to come to us and has only needed to vet for jabs and teeth since: He is Mr Perfect if you want something more woah than go. Safe, sensible and sound. Passported and up to date with everything. Tack is available at separate negotiation. Open to viewings, vettings and trainers. He would suit a huge variety of jobs including PC, RC, pure Dressage or even a solid happy hack.
