Sad sale of my lovely boy only 5** experienced home
15/15.1hh 5 rising 6 year old green book Connemara gelding with good breeding.
He is a striking unusual silver dun colour and has been with me for almost 18months.
In Ireland he has previously competed and has 8SJI points in 80cm and 90cm (I can send screenshots of the shows he attended.)
When he came to me in the uk we have let him mature a bit as he was only a 4 year old at the time and worked him slowly as I had time out of the saddle before buying him.
He went Out to his first competition in the uk at the end of last year and did a 75cm arena eventing coming home with a second place rosette.
He has also done xc schooling on grass and on a surface,
He hacks alone and in company like a schoolmaster and can hack for miles he really enjoys it, he has seen a variety of traffic both alone and in company. Has hacked in the heavy winds and doesn’t bat an eyelid.
He is amazing in open fields Im a very nervous rider in them and he looks after me and goes the speed that I’m happy with.
He has 3 correct paces and thrives in a consistent varied work, he will do his flatwork but he is not a dressage horse he loves his jumping, hacking, fieldwork and xc so a home that will do a bit of everything is ideal. He has just started doing some lateral movements both practicing in the school and out on hacks.
He has seen a variety of fillers/watertrays, rustic, coloured fences and logs and nothing fazes him, he really enjoys his jumping.
He is fully shod, and upto date with everything, he gets everything regularly checked and done.
He has been loose schooled and loose jumped aswell as been lunged
He thrives on his routine and consistency
He had a full check at the end of last year (saddle, teeth, physio, sheath clean etc) and there was a slight change in one of his hocks after being x-rayed so I have had this injected with Alfa2.
This decision has not been easy but I need to do what’s best for him and me, I believe in the right home he will go from strength to strength
He is in full work and enjoying himself in a varied work going out on hacks for miles, jumping, lunging and the odd day of schooling.
