Goose is a lovely stamp of a competition horse, she is kind affectionate and really thrives on a one to one situation
Goose’s flatwork is coming along, with 3 nice paces, she can be a little unsettled in the bridle occasionally
When jumping Goose is rhythmical and gives her rider confidence, she enjoys jumping, but still ridden in a snaffle and never rushes
Sadly goose has a small blemish to her left fetlock, this doesn’t cause issue and I am confident she would pass a vetting
When goose meets new people or is in a new environment she takes a while to trust, never nasty or difficult, just holds a lot of tension
For this reason I tack up slowly and use a sheepskin girth and saddlepad
I would describe her as cold backed, however just hunches doesn’t buck
Once goose is happy and trusts you she is normal to tack up etc, for this reason she is not for a novice or loud abrupt handler
She really would suit a kind experienced horse person who understands she has ability but takes time to trust
For this reason I am selling goose without trial, she needs to find a home with ability themselves or as a broodmare
Goose hacks alone or in company, snaffle mouthed, in open fields or through the village
Goose is lovely to handle, she is shod in front, good with farrier and I also take a carrot to catch her
Goose is good to load and travel in a 7.5to. Lorry
She is currently in gentle work, but for sale as I am about to begin IVF treatment and unable to keep her
