- Owned for 7 years. Ted has been my horse of a lifetime- being my dream and my mum’s too!
Successfully placed eventing, showjumping, dressage, working hunter at County level and even Olympia. Riding club, fox and stag hunted, stewarded at P2P, team chased, pony round up - there isn’t many places Ted has not taken me!
Competitive eventing, being correct and balanced, with a calm and trainable brain often low or sub 30s dressage. He is a super careful show jumper and really enjoys going XC.
He is snaffle mouthed in all disciplines. He is well put together and has a leg in each corner.
He is a dream to look after. Good to clip, shoe, travel, stand at shows, gentle on the ground. For a grey, he is clean in the stable. Will live in or out, happily with others.
He is good to hack alone or in company, sensible in open spaces. Used to heavy traffic and dogs everywhere. Whilst I have been studying, I have been able to pick up and compete to achieve what I have with him, but he is not the sort you need to ride everyday. Although enjoys going out and being worked.
He would be suited as a first horse, mother daughter share or for someone looking to enjoy a bit of everything - PC, Riding Club, Hunting. Equally a competitive eventer that I would love to see aiming for Badminton Grassroots. I have ridden 1.10/1.15 tracks in WH qualifiers and show jumping, evented up to BE100/ RC 100+ level.
I have been a member of the riding club for all the time I have owned him therefore references available.
This really is a heartbreaking sale, however due to other commitments- I would love to find the dream home for Ted that he truly deserves!
He has had a quiet couple months over winter, however is now back in work, fit and ready to go!
