Trevadlock King Arthur
Registered Welsh Section A , Gelding, 11.2hh.
Bred by Forlan stallion.
Arthur is a lovely example of a Welsh section A, he has plenty of bone and a leg in each corner, he represents the thicker set section As.
With four white socks, a white blaze and his beautiful dun colour , he catches the eye everywhere he goes and we’re always showered with compliments about his appearance. When ridden by an established/experienced rider he moves for fun and for an experienced rider would excel in showing and dressage. Whilst Arthur has a very correct and lovely shape over a fence (rarely tapping a pole), he can be spooky and for this reason would excel in showing and dressage rather than jumping. Arthur won the junior championship unaffiliated dressage league in April this year with a 16yo rider.
Arthur does ride off the lead rein and has been ridden by a 9 year old but susses his rider out pretty quickly and is not suitable for first ridden as he can buck when off the lead rein and spook in a way that would unseat an inexperienced rider. Therefore he is being sold as either a lead rein pony or a pony for an experienced, smaller rider.
Arthur loves life on the lead rein, he enjoys building a relationship with his handler and is comfortable and relaxed on the lead. Arthur has taken us around many unaffiliated lead rein showing classes and won most as well as multiple championships. I feel it is likely he could have pursued this career further in the right hands, but showing was not our primary focus and his jockey has now outgrown him in what she wants to do as her focus is on show jumping and riding off lead rein.
Out hacking Arthur will happily follow another horse. He is not strong and is good with most traffic except for larger vehicles and rattling trailers which he is scared of and would rather they stop for him to pass or wait for him to get out of he way.
He is 100% to catch, load and travel and will stand on the box or tied to the box all day long. You don’t know you’ve got him on the box.
He has never been nasty to handle. Good to clip.
Arthur has 2 front shoes on .
Arthur has no previous injuries or illnesses. He has never had laminitis but is carefully managed to avoid this.
Arthur is up to date with back, teeth and vaccinations.
Arthur will live out with others or alone, he has been out with mares and geldings and had no issue. Arthur is respectful of the stable and fencing.
This is a very sad sale and therefore only the experienced and best of homes need must apply. We would like to stay in touch to hear how he’s getting on if possible. Open to vettings, no loans.
Up to date with vaccinations, back and teeth done ready to go to his new home.
Worm count completed.
Quality tack and rugs available by separate negotiation.
