Sorry - this is just an interest one, always wondered whetehr ym horse is REALLY the bargain i thought he was....
he's Welsh cob with excellent breeding (Carnwallon Llewellyn, Derwen Vanessa), dark bay, 15hh, 9 yrs, excellent conformation, very striking and knows it. has done really well showing locally and could do county level i reckon. Exceptional natural balance and paces to die for - judges always comment on them. just starting lateral work. My instructor says i could easily BD him, but at the moment he's only done local dressage comps.
He is incredibly friendly, comes when called, loves people etc. relatively good to load (i.e. goes straight in but is a bit worried when he has to turn sideways at the top!). BArefoot and low maintenance, lives out no rugs.
Downsides: really not an easy ride. once you have him going well he gives an amazing feel but he has a real sense of humour and can be lazy and spooky. Has a very nasty sideways spook if genuinely scared.
He would jump quite nicely if wound up enough but becuase of the nasty sideways spooking i haven't jumped him above about 2 foot as have tunred into a wuss!! he doesn't do it gften though.... will hunt this year i think.
hacks out nicely in a group but not really on his own unless you're feeling very patient.
ALSO (I know this doens't improve sale price but still!) he gives kisses, shakes hands, plays football, puts his head down etc on command and loves clicker trianing and attention in general.
Lovable and genuine but quirky!!
I can put pics on if someone tells me how.....??? he is very handsome (can you tell im a proud mum lol!)
Thank you!
