Sid is a lovely 6-year-old Thoroughbred gelding, retired sound from racing with no injuries or vices. Since coming out of racing he has been beautifully reschooled and has already enjoyed success in the show ring.
Since being with us, Sid has turned his hoof to a variety of activities. He has been hunting, cross-country schooled, attended clear rounds, and even enjoyed trips to the beach. He hacks happily alone and remains sensible in company and open spaces.
Sid is very much “woe” rather than “go” (90% of the time); however, he is still a Thoroughbred and rides as such. On occasion, if he doesn’t understand or becomes slightly overwhelmed, he may plant or take a step or two backwards — a typical TB “computer says no” moment. With a confident rider, a quick reminder and he goes straight on with his job. Those familiar with Thoroughbreds will understand his way of going.
He has hunted a handful of times this season, proving to be bold and genuine, happily jumping without a lead. With more mileage, he has all the potential to make a fantastic Secretary or Field Master’s horse, or equally a very smart Ladies Hunter.
He is a big flashy horse, very chilled and loving on the yard and to handle.
Important: Sid is not a novice ride. He will only be available to experienced, knowledgeable hunting homes who understand and appreciate Thoroughbreds. To save everyone’s time.
A genuine, quality horse with plenty to offer the right rider.
Good to clip catch load travel and shoe. No lump bumps. Clean limbed.
