Marlene, Hampshire/ West Sussex border in Chichester
Marlene, 15hh 9 year old chunky cob mare. We bought Marlene about a year ago to work on the riding school, and while she is a lovely mare to handle and be around she does need a confident rider as if the rider gets tense it rubs off on her, the more relaxed you are the more relaxed she is. She hacks alone and in company, but is far better when her routes are varied so she doesn't start anticipating the canters. She is a lovely comfortable armchair ride. She is in a large mixed herd of mares and geldings, not at all a dominant mare. She is happy to live in or out. Shes not at all mareish. Price reflects the fact that while we know she is worth a lot more, she does need a rider that suits her.For video please see the Willowbrook riding centre website.
