This awesome young horse is on the market! Located North West Auckland (5 mins from Woodhill Sands). Rising 5 year old (26.11.09) bred to jump. This very special horse has had a lot of time and money invested into him and is only for sale due to ill health of owner/breeder. Started and initial schooling (6 weeks) with one of NZs most successful SJ riders. Had one outing to a baby SJ competition with her and took everything in his stride – wasn’t phased by the atmosphere and didn’t even look at the fillers. He wasn’t really thinking in the 60cm and 70cm rounds so she entered him in the 80cm and he was fantastic! Seems that the bigger the jumps are the better he will be. Definite scope for a lot more. He hasn’t done a lot of jumping but loves it and has had the best possible start to his jumping career. We bred him to SJ but looking at his movement he would probably make quite a nice eventer too. Been out on the farm, to the beach, swimming etc. Quiet and comfy to ride bareback in a halter. The kids love being led around on him and he is super patient with them. He is very sensible and super cool but is still pretty green and will need a confident experienced rider with a quiet seat and soft hands. 15.2hh. Rides like a much bigger horse. Feel the power! Gorgeous elevated movement. Straightforward and responsive ride. Easy and fun horse with a huge heart. Recently had a couple of weeks schooling with a 2* event rider and is now ready to go out and have some fun. Good to truck (has never floated but shouldn’t be a problem), catch, have feet/teeth done, worm etc. $6500 with all gear including fitted quality saddle. For sale to approved home only. Price negotiable but home is not.
