Exciting project for sale!
A genuine and exciting event prospect. His training has focused on eventing this year, completing 2 UA 80 ODEs, proving the following.
Flatwork, Carlos has a beautiful movement and is easily adjustable in his gaits. A well balanced canter and counter canter, rthymical trot and walk overtracking well. Has started lateral work picking it up very quickly.
Jumping, very keen to the fence and expressive forward jump, bold and brave to any fence, rarely looks at fillers or strange shaped xc fences. Jumping is his absolute favourite part of training, poles, SJ, grids, XC, logs in the woods, his whole face lights up. With more work, he could really excel in this sphere. He can be strong xc.
Hacking, easy alone or in company. Good with traffic, large vehicles including trains. Does have the odd spook but shudders then carries on. Happy to leave a group without fuss.
Good on the ground but can be a fidget (typical Throughbred) not for a novice handler. Good with the farrier, vet, physio, load, travel, clip (fidgets for legs/full head), dogs, dentist etc.
Only for sale due to being too much for current owner . Tack available on separate negotiation. Prefers to be stabled on a busier yard, settles better. Home more important than price.
