Gorgeous Blue Roan Blagdon Gelding
This is Smurf Standing approx 13hh Fully inoculated Wormed Registered & passported with CHAPS (Orions Shining Star) Blue Roan Blagdon Gelded Being shown successfully inland Smurf is a fab little guy who is rising 2, I think he is a later foal just due to the way he is. I bought him after seeing his advert online as a rising 3yr old colt standing at 14hh! When I completed the 5hr drive to get to him I saw he was actually an ill treated tiny young pony......I wasn't going to bring him back as I don't want to just collect them however what I witnessed while there made me load him up with the intention of getting him straight & going from there. He has been gelded with me, passported & registered with CHAPS and microchipped, jabbed and up to date with his feet which are just trimmed. He is a seriously good looking, loving boy who I have absolutely fallen in love with but as much as it breaks my heart he is not going to make the height I want or need. The vet & I believe he will be approx hh fully grown but built like a tank as he has huge knees! He loads & baths like a pro, I've taken him out in hand showing both local & championship level and he's done exceptional always placing in the ribbons. He moves straight & correctly. He attended a national youngstock show Dec winning 5 out of 6 of his classes (placed 2nd in 6th class) also bringing home a championship & reserve championship title from the evening performances. He is walked out & he's awesome in traffic! We get lorries, busses, motorbikes, tractors literally everything & he just doesn't even care! The only one thing I've found that made him jump was a temporary roadworks sign that was bright yellow as he came round a corner one day which all he did was jump. He's never while being led or inhand reared at me, bucked or kicked EVER. I can literally do anything to him and he is fab! My children have led him around. I think when the time is right he will make an awesome show cob both ridden or inhand and is perfect for driving too. He will come with any rugs I have at the point of sale for him. He is a very spoilt boy, I want the same kind of home for him that I provide as a minimum as he deserves to never know the nonsense he had to come from again. I have literally hundreds of photos of him if you want to see them. I would love him to go to a show home BUT a loving knowledgable home that can keep him properly is paramount. Read More
