Nordeste, a little Luso with the biggest heart! Affectionately known as Nordi, is a beautiful 10-year-old Lusitano gelding with exceptional breeding, three fantastic paces and a temperament that is genuinely hard to find.

Kind, honest and incredibly willing, Nordi is a pleasure to ride. He works forward off the leg with natural energy and impulsion. He has a particularly impressive, ground-covering walk, a balanced canter and is exceptionally comfortable to sit. He is equally happy working in a snaffle or double bridle.

Currently schooling at Elementary level, Nordi has all the attributes to progress further through the dressage levels. His trainability, natural ability and excellent attitude make him an exciting prospect for an ambitious amateur or junior rider with an established foundation. He enjoys jumping, hacking and fun rides, and approaches everything with his trademark willing attitude. He is a real “yes” horse who genuinely enjoys his work.

Nordi demonstrates the confidence and boldness associated with his renowned Veiga bloodlines.

On the ground, Nordi is an absolute gentleman. He thrives on human attention, has impeccable manners and is regularly hand-walked and cooled off by my eight-year-old daughter.

He is one of the last living grandsons of the legendary Novilheiro, the extraordinary Lusitano who achieved international recognition in both dressage and showjumping, as well as demonstrating the remarkable versatility of the Iberian horse.

On his dam's side, Nordi descends from the renowned Zeus do Lis, sire of FEI Grand Prix Lusitano Lírio MVL, ridden by Portuguese Olympic dressage rider João Torrão.

This combination of exceptional breeding, natural athleticism, intelligence and temperament makes Nordi a particularly special horse.

Nordi is a genuinely lovely horse who offers the perfect combination of quality, trainability and enjoyment. He has the potential to progress in dressage whilst remaining the sort of horse you can simply get on and have fun with.

A very special horse looking for a home where his wonderful character and ability will be appreciated.
