Barney Bear is a super smart young horse with all the attributes to make a serious prospect for the future.
Imported from Ireland, Barney has been carefully and correctly backed by myself and has been an absolute pleasure from day one. He has taken everything in his stride and continues to improve with each outing.
He has already been out to a couple of training outings, where he has confidently schooled around both cross-country fences and showjumps. He shows a bold, willing and sensible attitude, always wanting to please and learn.
Barney moves beautifully, with three expressive, balanced paces and a naturally uphill, rhythmical canter that will certainly catch the eye in the show ring. I genuinely believe he will be an exciting contender for young horse classes later this year.
Temperament-wise, he is a kind, people-oriented gelding with a lovely trainable brain. Easy to manage both on the ground and under saddle, he would suit a competent teenager stepping off ponies or an amateur rider looking for a quality young horse to produce and put their own stamp on.
A real gentleman with a bright future ahead.
This is a very sad sale of a much-loved horse, so serious enquiries only please.
