• Mare
• 5 years
• 14.1 hands

• Excellent in traffic
• Easy to handle
• Calm and confident

Gem is a smart, 14.1hh bright bay mare, rising 5, believed to be Welsh Section D (unregistered). A surprise foal, we know her dam’s excellent bloodlines (Thorneyside, Welsh Flyer, Nebo and Rhystyd), though unfortunately we were never able to trace the sire due to stud dispersal.

This lovely young mare has the kindest nature and adores attention. She’s easy to catch, lead, load, and stands perfectly for grooming, the farrier, and general handling. An absolute delight to have around.

Backed in October 2024, Gem has taken everything in her stride. Calm and confident, she hacks alone or in company and is often relied on to lead other youngsters. Can step it up or down depending on her rider, would make a fab mother daughter share. Absolutely, excellent in heavy traffic, unphased by tractors and lorries making her a complete pleasure to ride.

She’s confident opening and closing gates, and will stand to be mounted from the ground or block – even when out hacking. Recently started schooling and popping a few jumps, showing great promise. She’s been to training events where she behaved like a seasoned pro, and placed 5th out of 45 in an eRide dressage test with minimal preparation.

A versatile and trainable mare ready to go on and excel in any sphere. Lots of potential for someone wanting a fun and rewarding young horse to produce on further.
