15'2 Irish Cob, Chestnut Gelding. He has a varied CV making him a good allrounder, ideal Riding Club Horse or Mother / Daughter share.
Owned for last 3 years. He Show jumps confidently around a 70/80cm course and is forgiving of a poor stride, could jump bigger - it's me that's comfortable at this height.
Well schooled and competes Unaff Dressage with wins at Cricklands Stay Away Shows and 2nd at Hartpury International Arena & wins at other local Shows, he takes it all in his stride. He has an active trot, super canter with established walk to canter, turn on the forehand, leg yields, shoulder in and quarters in on both reins.
He has also Shown successfully including Working Hunter. He has Hunted extensively with previous owner, with her friends also borrowing him to Hunt. He enjoys being at the front and isn't a plod at the back. He can be steady in a small slow group hacking and will be more forward and quicker in a busier, faster group, XC and Hunting. He can get excited Hunting and XC so wouldn't be suitable for a novice.
Good to load on trailer or lorry, you can leave him on the trailer whilst you walk the course or buy a coffee and sandwich. He is great at both day Shows and Stay Away Shows, happy in a Show Stable.
We are in a rural village and he is good with large Farm Machinery although he can spook at a bird. Hacks in company, alone he is a bit more 'looky' but he will hack on his own. He will ride and lead. Very good to clip including his head, good to wash, shoe and Dentist.
He is good on the ground & lead in and out of the field. He's used to children, dogs, cats, chickens, low flying aircraft & building work. He can be turned out with mares and geldings. He's in a snaffle for Schooling, Hacking including cantering up Bridleways and Show jumping.
Owned for last 3 years but I want to concentrate on Dressage and have bought a Dressage Horse. A great fun horse, Age 16 with plenty of life in him, and ideal allrounder. The right home is very important as he has been a star with us. Lots more photos and videos
