Very sad sale of Loki. 15.3hh 8yo gelding by Passing Glance.

Loki is a lovely horse to ride and handle in all aspects. Very smart gelding, compact and well put together. 3 balanced paces and rhythmical canter. Works well on the flat being light and responsive; snaffle mouthed in all phases. Basic lateral work, counter canter etc is all in place. He loves his jumping, very genuine to a fence and is schooling 90/1M at home.

Loki has attended plenty of RC lessons, arena eventing, and show jumping as well as eventing. Began his eventing career at the start of the season, flying round clear XC each time and at his most recent, finishing 3rd on a DR score of 30.8! Has established his confidence nicely and he is ready to step up to 90 level but we have not been back out as I'm not prepared to run on the hard ground currently. 

Does not need riding every day to stay sane and sensible. Regularly take him out on my own, including eventing. Lives with my mare without bother. Loves his hacking, goes alone or in company, used to heavy traffic as well as open spaces, does not fuss about cows, kids, dogs, bikes etc. Genuinely nice person with a huge character, forever making us laugh.

Loki has proven to be polite and genuine with a smaller jockey on board, perfect step onto horses for a capable little jockey or fun for a small adult. He is well-schooled and light off the aids, so although he is not sharp or fizzy, he wants someone who rides correctly with an independent hand and light in their seat to get the best tune from him. 

Sadly personal circumstances force sale, very sad to see him go so the perfect home is a must. RECENT VIDEO'S WILL BE ADDED ON SATURDAY.
