Proudly introducing the gorgeous ‘Bambi’ - stunning 16.3hh approx , 8yo , Irish gelding
No lumps , bumps , blemishes nor medical history
Same home for five years

Bambi is very kind on the ground and super easy to have on the yard. He is perfect to catch, loads and travels perfectly and has a very gentleman manner about him. Bambi is very reserved and nervous of new people until he gets to know you. He then, very quickly comes out of his shell and you shows you what a cheeky chappy he is!

I could ride this boy all day long on the flat. He’s been beautifully produced by his owner. Snaffle mouthed and never strong. A nice leg in each corner type. Works in a beautiful outline and is very easy to adjust. Bambam is a beautiful mover with the world’s most comfortable canter around! Ready to go to a dressage show tomorrow and would no doubt be in the thrillies.

Bambi is bold and brave when jumping. Has been to many clinics , lessons, and small training shows. Has a very easy approach a fence , super honest, good technique, and very forgiving! With further production, who knows what he could do! Enjoys XC and has done a few hunter trails / ODE’s. Bold and consistently mannerly , again, so much to be played with!

Hacks out very well, alone or in company. Is sensible in traffic and really enjoys this. Super in open spaces. Hacks around quiet country lanes or down the busy A roads! He is very reliable and consistent and one of my personal rides of choice

There is a BUT , here’s why he’s not 12k ….
Bambi is extremely nervous of new riders. He has only ever had myself and his owner ride him(Just started to introduce my yard girl)
Bambi is natural worrier! He had never bucked nor reared etc or done anything nasty! He is 100% genuine. However , he does get very tense and needs competent reassurance from the rider. Now that I’ve ridden him a fair bit , he is super with me on board. He just needs someone to be his friend and have a 1-1 relationship with his new owner. Bambi is also nervous with the farrier. Again, not at all nasty, just needs patience and reassurance

This has been an extremely difficult and long thought out decision for his current owner and is purely down to personal circumstances and nothing at all to do with Bambi. She would very much like to stay in touch. His tack is available separately

I really do think a lot of this super little horse and I don’t want to get this wrong for him so please only the best of homes needs enquire
