It’s with a very heavy heart that we offer Alan for sale, purely due to lack of time. With his owner starting a new job, we feel it’s only fair that Alan goes on to do what he loves best — helping another rider progress in their eventing journey.

Alan has been with us for the past 3 years and during that time has done a bit of everything. He’s competed in eventing, been out showjumping, and is established to Elementary level dressage. He’s a genuine, experienced horse who still has so much to give.

Before coming to us, Big Owl evented up to Intermediate level and has a strong background in junior eventing, making him an ideal schoolmaster type. He knows his job and would be perfectly suited to someone wanting to learn, gain confidence, and move up the levels with a safe and knowledgeable partner.

He’s a kind, honest horse with good paces, who enjoys having a job and deserves a home where he can continue to be loved, ridden, and appreciated.

Due to him being a competition horse, Alan would be better suited to a more educated rider who really wants to learn the ropes at 90/100 cm. Very easy to handle on the ground, my non-horsey parents happily handle him away at shows.

A very sad sale, but we feel as Alan deserves to be out doing what he loves and therefore this sale is with his best interests in mind.
