IMPRESSIVE 14.2hh PUREBRED CONNEMARA GELDING 7YRS in Exmouth
This handsome little horse is a terrific all-rounder, he has the paces and jump to give someone a lot of fun. He is extremely sweet-natured and intelligent, with a trainable attitude. Recently officially measured at 148cm with a Life Certificate, he actually rides and looks like a 15hh. George has brought my daughter into eventing and he has taught her so much. They have been competing at 90cm, always within the time and clean across country, and often very close to optimum time. His dressage scores are constantly improving, with the last two events being under 30. He came 5th at Millfield BE80T in May with a double clear. Was selected this year for PC area teams and went to PC National Champs for Dressage. This horse has flashy paces with a lot of scope and so would appeal to enthusiastic teenagers as well as seasoned adult riders. He simply loves cross country and has done unaffiliated of 1m and went clear, and has willingly schooled over novice size xc fences. He is confident over all types of xc fence, including water and ditches. He's a very careful jumper with a lot of 'ping' and knows how to sort out his strides at last minute. He has done unaffiliated showjumping up to 1m and has schooled around 1.10 courses at home. Several times at events people have commented upon what an excellent working hunter they think he would make due to his way of holding himself and his scope. Although we haven't got into this ourselves, he did very well as a 5-year-old with his previous owner, winning at Areas BSPS Mountain and Moorland WHP. He confidently hacks out alone and in company, and has done beach and river rides, acting impeccably on them and always snaffle-mouthed. He is good to load, travel, shoe, vet and clip with no previous medical history or vices. He is very easy to look after and is happy to live in or out. George is very affectionate and adores attention so deserves an experienced 5* home only. Very reluctant sale as restricted time due to A level studies means my daughter cannot continue producing this pony with the amount of attention he deserves as he has terrific potential and will go far in the right hands. Realistically priced to sell, comes with some tack and rugs.
