Orange has now gone on a 4 week trial. The young girl has already ridden him 4 times so i can not see any problems with the trial (fingers crossed). I have tried not to post too much on here about it as i felt like it was tempting fate. He went yesterday (i was very tearful) and seemed fine and laid back when we left his new home (the chickens were rather scary though!!).
So onto the exciting bit, I am now on the look out for a new horse, only looking at mo until the trial period is up. I wondered if any of you guys could put me in touch with the right people or suggest any good dealers etc. I am going to Dublin for 3 days at end of october so looking in this area could also be an option. I am looking for a gelding 16hh+ 3-6 years that I can do BSJA and dressage with. I am not fussed if the horse is not backed or needs schooling as I am really looking for something I can get my teeth into. As for breeding I have not really thought about it but I know I don't want a pure TB as the horse needs to able to carry 12.5 stone easily. I do prefer a horse with a nice deep girth as I have quite long legs so again if anyone can make any suggestions on breed that would also be good. I'm sure you guys wull come up trumps you always seem to.
