Jim is a true out-and-out hunter who will confidently and willingly jump anything you put in front of him.

He’s had a busy summer enjoying fun rides, cross-country, and plenty of hacking, and has now started his hunting season this autumn. Hunting is clearly what he was made for — he’s an armchair ride with a leg in each corner, a naturally balanced and comfortable stride, and a light, responsive feel. He goes beautifully off the leg, is never silly or strong, and happily goes in a snaffle. Jim will pop over anything you ask and stands like a rock at the meet.

He’s equally enjoyable out hacking — completely reliable in all traffic and happy to go alone or in company. He stands quietly at the mounting block and is a pleasure to have around.

Good to clip (just requires a twitch for his ears), easy to catch, loves attention, and excellent with the farrier.
No vices, lumps, or bumps.

Jim would suit a capable, experienced young rider looking for a talented and straightforward hunting partner to bring on. Under saddle, he is exceptionally genuine, honest, and consistent — he has never put a foot wrong.

To save everyone’s time, please note that Jim will not suit an older rider looking for a quiet hack or a novice wanting a first horse. While he is kind, mannerly, and uncomplicated, he is still a young horse with plenty of ability and enthusiasm for his work.
