Striking 17.1hh, 9yo, chestnut , Irish gelding. Meet Pepper - a stunning homebred chap who’s well hunted and loves to work
A lovely model who’s fit , in work, shod , and needs a job! P.S - the hunt field is calling him!!
Pepper is easy to have , live in or out, perfect to catch , good to load and travel and settled into any routine
However , is he a right grump in the stable? Yes
Does he want you to kiss him and spend hours grooming him? Absolutely not
He just wants to have a mutual agreement and go riding! That’s part of who he is and something the new owner just has to except
Never actually bitten or kicked any of us and he’s handled by a range of people here. However that’s not to say he wouldn’t if you go in there like Miss Daisy. Probably being over critical but I’d rather be honest about that and filter out time wasters straight away
Now the negative is out the way , let’s get on to the many positives!!
Under saddle Pep totally redeems himself! Bold in traffic , absolutely loves to hunt, a massive scopey jump which should definitely be explored , hacks well and works nicely on the flat
Been hunted by hunt staff as well as members of the field. Did a full season last winter with the Ross Harriers (references available)
Ideal job for him as he knows and loves that job
Jumps anything you point him at , stands patiently , closes gates etc - a super sort to take out with you
Pep has had some schooling earlier this year and now began working really well on the flat, so smart ! Has his simple changes , works in a nice shape and is forward and willing
Loves to jump! Has done some unaffiliated show jumping. Hasn’t got loads of mileage in this sphere so is green but certainly very capable and intelligent- no reason he couldn’t be very competitive in the right hands showing him the ropes
Been XC schooling and boy oh boy, the word LEGEND springs to mind!! Jumped in and out the water , up and down steps , combinations etc - you name it , he jumped it! Again showing massive of scope. Same again , low mileage but more than capable with lots of potential there
Hacks out well alone or in company. Bold in the traffic , enjoys a canter but is equally happy to plod around the lanes. Stands well at the mounting block and is one of my rides of choice for hacking days
Pepper is a classy horse who’s a lot of fun while being safe and sane. However he’s not at all dull. He’s had many novices on but personally I think k he’d end up taking a novice for a mug! That’s just him! He needs someone who’s capable and just wants to have fun and who’s going to be his leader.
Open to any inspection
Due to go away mid September for surgery so I’m keen for a quick sale therefore open to any offer
Would like to stay in touch , his breeder is a family friend and we’ve known this horse for years
