BE Grass roots horse of dreams! This is a very sad sale due to my broken neck, otherwise he would not be on the market as I bought him to have fun with myself but won’t be riding for quite some time and can’t even drive the lorry and he’s going to waste! He really is a dream horse and should be someone’s number one!
Banjo is a super chap, he has evented BE 90 with very good record, more than enough scope to go on, massive stride and incredibly brave, gives his rider lots of confidence XC and loves it. He will be the ultimate grass roots contender but is sure to go beyond this with a competitive rider, he’s quick, careful and clever and combined with jumping ability is beautifully schooled on the flat with super paces and is very trainable.
He knows basic lateral work and does a change no problem. He would make an outstanding 151cm WHP. Whatever this chap ends up doing he will do to top level.
He has show jumped to 1.10 in Ireland with a v good record as a 148cm, we have lightly competed him here as a 148cm pony BS with inexperienced 12 year old boy riding but no guarantee he will measure in as he is tall! To show jump he’s brave, careful and very talented, should he measure in there is no doubt he would be a top track pony. He has 198 BS points £223 act. He has two 148cm measurements in Ireland. He needs a competent, quiet and competitive rider to get the best out of him.
Banjo has been having a bit of fun hunting with me, he’s been out with both local drag and foxhound packs again proving himself to be a lot of fun, jumping absolutely anything asked and being a very good boy. He is the type that’s reliable enough to do a bit of everything and happy to drop down to do a bit of pony club, take a family member hunting, hack out etc. he hacks out very well both alone and in company and is good in traffic.
He’s easy to handle, catch, box, shoe, needs sedation for clipping as isn’t a fan but So easy to do everything else with I forgive him!
Please serious enquiries only, this one is upsetting to see leave!
