CHICO  

15.1hh bay Irish gelding 14 yrs

Fun little horse who has been and done a bit of everything, unaff SJ, ODE, hunted etc.  

Chico is a super chap who enjoys his work and is looking for a rider who wants to go straight out and do a bit of everything. 

He is nicely schooled on the flat and does a nice dressage test, with three active paces. He views his flatwork however as a means to an end and would rather be jumping which he absolutely loves! Chico has lots of experience jumping unaffiliated round SJ and ODE ( Cotswold cup) to 90 cm. He was purchased by current owners for slightly nervous 12 yr old child and he has proved to be a bit too much of a step up from a 14hh cob so looking for a slightly older and slightly braver rider. He is great fun both SJ and XC and loves the job. He is brave and bold and forward thinking but not sharp, just occasionally a bit speedy but not in a nasty way, just keen! Very brave XC, gives a good lead. Would love to continue doing ODEs, SJ and maybe a bit of hunting.  

Chico loves going hacking both alone and in company. He’s great in open spaces and happy to go for a gallop but pulls up easily. He’s been good in all traffic met to date. He’s easy to do, box, shoe, catch, clip, he will come in for the night but appreciates his turnout and has been living out with us. Easy going and happy to make friends. He occasionally needs reminding of his manners and as such would need a horse savvy home, not a novice family. With the right person he has loads to offer and will give serious fun.
