Hi, Ozzo is a TBxID, chesnut, 16-2 and would be now aged 15. He was a bit of a bucker, but had no badness in him. I had him on loan for a year in 2003 and we completed a Novice Season in Endurance. At the time I would have paid anything to own him but his owner would not sell. He stood in a field for two years after I handed him back and was then sold to an eventing home ( he was an execellant jumper) Despite being a big boy and being only 5 when I loaned him I had only been riding 9 months and he taught me so much. So, I really am interested to hear if he has had an eventful life or not as the case may be. Thanks in advance.

He originated from near Leyburn in North Yorkshire, and I had him in livery near Northallerton, North Yorkshire. I remembered he was not a great fan of dog's. During his year with me he was attacked by a horse slasher (summer 2003) He was cut in lines of three, each side of his body being slashed equally. He had 3 slashes to the throat, under the belly and accross his barrel. He recovered well from this to allow us to finish our season. Do you think you may know him?
