Misty is a 16.1HH, rising 8 year old Irish Sports horse by Cruising Ambassador. Evented up to 90cm as a 6 year old and proved herself to be bold and genuine to a fence. She absolutely loves her show jumping and cross country - brave, confident, honest and forward-thinking.
She is excellent to hack on her own or with others. She happily going hacking with dogs, and is sensible in traffic. Easy to catch, handle and manage day to day. Snaffle mouthed all the time.
She is a competitive mare who enjoys her work and likes a rider with a purpose. She can have a fun but safe spook and the occasional 'whoopee' buck when feeling fresh - never nasty, so is NOT suitable for a novice ride and would not suit a nervous or unbalanced ride. That said, my 12 year old daughter can hack and jump her and is totally safe.
Well established on the flat for her age, however she has fallen out of love with dressage.
I believe she would thrive with a capable, gun-ho type rider who wants to enjoy life - whether thats cross country, hunter trials, arena eventing, fun rides, show jumping, team chasing or hunting (although she has not hunted before), or simply someone looking for a forward, fun hacking partner.
She has plenty of ability and enthusiasm and though still young requires a confident rider who will enjoy her competitive nature rather than try to dampen it.
Very good with loading, clipping, dentist, farrier and vet.
Serious enquiries only please.
If you feel you could offer her the knowledgeable, competent home she needs, please get in touch.
