Steps Helsinki (ex J whitaker ride, any info!)

[orton]

Does anyone have any infor on Steps Helsinki the ex John Whitaker and Guy Williams ride. I know the obvious as to what he has doen in the past. Has anyone any info as to whether this horse has jacked the job. He has hasn;t been on the circuit for 2 years since Guy Jumped him. I would prefer people to PM me as this is a public forum and would hate the horse to be slated in any way on public forum.
Thanx.

Only noticed this post this afternoon, having been away from HHO for ages.

I've not seen the horse for ages, but I just checked on the BSJA site and he's still registered. It's actually Helsinci not as in the city.

He was up for sale at £800 a few months ago, so I hope you didn't pay anymore than that for him.

Basically a young girl bought him and they didn't get on, like a typical pro horse that has always been ridden by a pro he couldn't cope with an amateur. Wasn't the girls ridng as she got on well with her other horse, just together they didn't gell.

She tried jumping him, he then went to Guy Williams, did alright again, she then had him back, got a job in london the horse has sat in a field and last time I heard was for sale at £800.
