16.3hh Rising 7yo French AQPS Gelding

Joops is a short-coupled, beautifully put-together 16.3hh rising 7 yr old French AQPS gelding with quality stamped all over him. AQPS horses are predominantly blood, with 1/8 Selle Français, giving Joops the ideal combination of athleticism, substance and elegance.

He boasts three exceptional paces, with an active, engaged hind leg and expressive movement through his whole body. His canter is balanced and naturally uphill, while his trot work is elastic and eye-catching. An elegant mover who is sure to impress the dressage judges and rack up strong scores and plenty of ribbons.

Joops has recently started competing around British Showjumping courses, where he has proven to be brave, careful and genuine. He is already jumping clear rounds at British Novice level and has all the scope and attitude to progress easily through the ranks.

A natural cross-country horse, Joops is taking everything in his stride and absolutely loves his job. He is bold, clever and confident, making him an exciting and very promising eventing prospect.

In the yard, Joops is a dream. He is easy to box, shoe and clip, excellent in traffic, and will hack alone or in company for miles. He has a kind, affectionate nature, loves attention, and is an easy horse to manage day-to-day — the sort that makes ownership a pleasure.

A genuine, talented and kind horse with a huge future ahead of him, Joops would be perfectly suited to an amateur or young rider wanting a competitive yet confidence-giving event horse to grow with.
