what do you think of my new horse (subject to vet)

She has a little more substance than shows in the photo

Went to see her today, her passport says very dark brown she was too dark to see any black points and has a fawn muzzle

She is 7yr Irish 7/8 done a few DR tests and 1 clear round, once xc schooled but thats all, can't wait to show her

Anyway I watched her ridden and popped over a fence then I rode her WOW she is lovely, not consistant in an outline yet but so forward yet comes back lovely. A tiny squeeze and away you go JUST WHAT I NEEDED cos I have a repairing fractured ankle and rheumatoid arthritis so can't have anything that needs too much leg.
Took her for a hack and she did spook at a white cushion on the side of the road and went to trot away, but was no problem when I said no its ok. Went past 2 motorbikes, speeding cars, a push bike (amazing for me old horse would have been in the next county lol) Then past a load of bags and rubble, followed by a huge tractor.

Then took her in a big field and had a lovely steady canter back towards home pulled up as soon as I asked
She is so so sweet but on a big yard and has no mom and you can tell, she is just out of sorts

She is really really sweet and will be my first mare, as always had geldings before.
Thanks for reading

She sounds a lovely type. While I do love my mare I've already vowed that my next horse will be one that comes with brakes!! she sounds like just what I'd want.

Hope the vetting goes well and you have years of fun ahead of you... if not, give her to me!
