Winston has been with his current family 2 1/2 years, he was bought for an inexperienced 12 year old girl and has spent the past two years doing all PC with the Woodland hunt pony club, including 2 camps.
Competing Unaff SJ to 90cm and has done a couple of NSEA shows. Owner hasn’t been the most competitive so he has no BS points but has 148 Irish points in classes up to 1.20cm. Winston is a well schooled ride who goes very well on the flat, good lateral work and changes established.
He’s a lot of fun to ride and would best suit a slightly older teen or adult ( current owner was a little over horsed by him at 12 years!) he is a forgiving ride, takes a miss but can be a little looky so needs a rider that just tells him to get on with it and gives him a bit of confidence. Perfect type for kid coming off ponies BS.
He’s done everything here at low level, enjoys arena eventing but has limited XC experience ( current owner not really interested ) so if you wanted to take him eventing you would need to build up from basics.
Winston loves his hunting and has been out frequently for the past two seasons with the RMA sandhurst drag which has been his owners favourite thing. He’s always polite and well mannered and has really looked after his rider.
He’s a really nice genuine horse who hacks alone and in company very well, excellent in traffic. He’s very simple to have on the yard, good to box, catch, shoe, perfect to clip etc. he’s happy to live in or out and is easy going.
Never lame, sick or sorry.
