Arthur is fabulous little horse who is looking for his permanent home. He is well bred by Willowcroft Real Prince, a showing type stallion that has sired many in hand and ridden champions. His dam sire is Stormhill Miller, a popular choice among breeders who had eventing in mind. Stomhill miller has sired many horses who have gone on to 5* eventing.
As a youngster Arthur quickly got to grips with the showing world and had been quite successful as a novice/Intermediate show riding type. He has 3 expressive paces and good conformation. Moving on from showing, Arthur has been in amateur homes, enjoying hacking, pleasure rides and some unaffiliated events.
Arthur is well schooled, however due to the nature of his previous hacking/amateur home, his schooling has taken a backward step and is now coming on again nicely. He has lovely paces and an uphill canter.
Arthur has been to a handful of training shows with us, jumping courses of 80cm, although a little green in this field he is very bold and willing. He is happy to jump off a miss stride, and was not phased by fillers/planks etc.
Arthur is good to hack alone and in company, and has seen village and farm traffic.
Arthur is good to clip, shoe, box, load, catch etc. is an easy horse to have around the yard, happily being turned out with mare, geldings or on his own. He is a little sensitive around his mouth, has been seen by the dentist and takes the bridle fine. but it would be something his new owner would need to be aware of.
Arthur is currently up for sale as a 'project' to continue his education. This is reflected in his price.
