Pico – Outstanding in brain and competitive ability!
Compact 16.2hh | 5yo (2020) | French AQPS Gelding | By Tiger Groom
Pico is an exceptionally elegant and well put-together young horse, combining some of the very best Thoroughbred blood with a touch of Selle Français for added quality, scope and rideability.
He boasts three incredible paces – active, balanced and naturally uphill. Light in the mouth and a joy to ride, he is already working incredibly well on the flat with basic lateral work established and has all the presence and quality to be a dressage judge’s dream- with an exceptional hindleg.
A natural jumper, Pico has taken to his showjumping education with ease. He is careful, quick-thinking and very athletic, showing all the attributes needed to make a serious event horse. He would suit a competitive lady or teenage rider wanting a quality young horse with genuine upper-level potential, not just a competitive Grassroots campaigner. He has been out eventing at 100 level this season, and is ready to affiliate and be ultra competitive.
Pico is a very natural cross country star, showing his nimble and light footed ease to navigate anything! He will be a dream to get out eventing and progress through the grades! His first training event he ended up jumping the mid section of the BE Novice track to challenge him as he was finding the 100 a walk in the park. He will catch himself up quickly, competitively speaking, this year and be competitive in 6 yr old classes- and could be a very competitive horse in the Cornbury Thoroughbred incentive.
On the ground, Pico is an absolute pleasure. He is gentle, kind and straightforward, and is easy to handle in every way – happy to hack, shoe, box and clip.
A beautiful young horse with talent, temperament and the breeding to go all the way. A very exciting prospect for the future!
Recent full set of good X-rays, very well put together and open to any vet.
