- Forward and fast - exciting to ride
- Bold and brave - will jump anything pointed at
- Safe to hack alone and in open spaces
I'm looking for a horse to join our family as my teenage daughter's second ride. She already has a fancy showjumper with all the bloodlines but with that comes a tricky ride and it's not always fun. We're looking for a confidence-restoring second ride to bring that fun back and in return, the horse will enjoy a kind, quiet and balanced rider, be loved endlessly, have a varied and exciting life, wanting for nothing. Stabled on a professional event yard but living a varied PC / BS / NSEA / camps / fun rides lifestyle and genuinely be part of the family for life - we've never sold a horse, they're all still with us.
MUST BE LOW TO MID FOUR FIGURES and ALL OF THE FOLLOWING:
16.2+
Competitive up to 1.10
Any age or sex, happy with golden oldies who love their job and aren't ready to hang up their boots
Must hack alone and be safe in open spaces
Must love to jump - strictly no stoppers as we have had our fair share of those
Bold & brave - nothing looky - must lock on and jump everything, SJ & XC
Forgiving of a miss in the arena when the nerves kick in
Careful and fast against the clock - don't mind strong so long as they come back to you eventually and aren't unsafe
Dressage a bonus but bottom of the list
Nothing that will spin / buck / rear dangerously
Loads and travels well in a 3.5t
Not worried about quirks / vices so long as disclosed
Any vet history / injections please just disclose so we don't have to discover things the hard way down the line and can ensure the horse is always comfortable
Ideally South West but will travel for the right horse
Thank you in advance - loving forever home awaits!
Happy to loan with plenty of updates
