Riverside Kasanova (Errol)
13-year-old Bay Warmblood Gelding | 16.3hh
Located at Chedington Equestrian, Dorset
Riverside Kasanova, affectionately known as Errol, is a genuine, kind-hearted and experienced event horse looking for his next partner.
This is a sale I’m making with my head rather than my heart. Since buying Errol in 2020, he’s taken me from my first events all the way to international 3* level. In 2023, he travelled with me from Australia to the UK to be based with Tim and Jonelle Price. He has been so much more than a competition horse—he’s been my best friend.
Errol has successfully competed up to 3* eventing, most recently jumping a superb clear cross-country at Belsay 3* this season. Having taken me from my first events through to international level, Errol has been an incredible teacher. While our results reflect two people learning together, he has all the experience to give his next rider the confidence to progress through the grades. He is now an overqualified schoolmaster for the lower levels and would be perfectly suited to a young rider or ambitious amateur wanting to be competitive while confidently campaigning up to 2*.
On the flat, Errol produces smart, competitive tests at the lower levels. While the technical demands of 3* dressage have been more challenging for him, he is consistently capable of producing quality scores through the grades. He is an honest, genuine jumper who gives his rider confidence and is a reliable partner around 2* tracks.
What truly sets Errol apart is his temperament. He is one of the kindest horses you’ll ever meet and an absolute pleasure to have around. He will happily stand tied to the lorry all day, is easy to clip, shoe, load and travel, and takes children, dogs, livestock and farm machinery completely in his stride. In fact, he was the very first horse my little niece sat on when she was just four months old.
Errol owes me absolutely nothing, and all I want is for him to find someone who will love and appreciate him as much as I have. He still has so much to offer and will give his next rider the confidence, experience and enjoyment to achieve their own goals while creating the same partnership that has meant so much to me
