Bibi Dahl is a very attractive home bred mare, by an Advanced Eventer out of an ID x TB mare. Her Grand Dam was a top Working Hunter and her sire is closely related to the great Milton.

Bibi has BS winnings and has competed with success at unaffiliated dressage and combined training.

Prior to Christine’s accident we had high hopes for Bibi being capable of at least Intermediate Eventing and the equivalent Showjumping.

She was a fairly forward six year old, having achieved all her form then. She is now, through no fault of her own, a fairly backward eight year old. She has been in work most of the time since but has had no competitions.

She is a careful jumper and really enjoys it. She has all the right credentials to go far and is a nice ride to an obstacle.

She is good to do and although hacking alone is not her favourite thing she does do it and has always been ridden by a lady oap or a teenager. Having said that, she is not suitable for a novice or nervous rider.

Having agreed a sale she underwent a very thorough vetting which unearthed a low grade heart murmur. Following that she had a full heart scan, concluding “MR is a common finding in horses performing in all sport disciplines……..When MR is mild, it is usually associated with normal performance and life expectancy.”

When checked subsequently during vaccination or teeth it has not changed. Because of this she is unlikely to get a clean veterinary cert and in recognition of this and Christine’s on going injury, which rules out any competing for the foreseeable future, we have halved her price.
