Very sad sale because my daughter is going to university.

We bought Rossi directly from his breeders three years ago. Since then, my teenage daughter has trained him up to Medium dressage. They have successfully competed BD up to Elementary and Unaffiliated up to Medium. They’ve also done lots of Ponyclub activities, including camp, rallies, and stayaway shows. They’ve qualified for Ponyclub National Championships four years in a row and have competed in the Intermediate, Open and Freestyle classes, and got several placings. Earlier this year they’ve also qualified for Ponyclub Spring Festival where they came third in the Open FTM.

Rossi has three lovely paces and is a very quick learner. He has a green change and a lot of potential to go far with the right rider. He enjoys a varied lifestyle, including hacking – either alone or in company. Rossi has been to several fun-rides, and he loves a good gallop – with or without saddle. He also loves to jump – both show-jumping and cross-country. He doesn’t bat an eyelid at fillers and jumps everything, but needs some convincing to go into water.

However, Rossi is not a novice ride. He has big movements, and he needs a knowledgeable rider and home. Rossi weaves when he is left alone or when he gets bored. We have managed this with a good routine, which is important for him. He is good to handle on the ground, and can be turned out alone or in a herd with mares or geldings.

Rossi is good to load and shoe, and up-to-date with vaccinations and dentist. He has regular saddle checks and routine physio visits.

We are looking for a competitive home for Rossi where he can continue to compete and enjoy a varied lifestyle, and where he will be loved.

Comes with full wardrobe.
