    Gender: gelding

    Selling points: “This stunning gelding has been given time to mature due to his size. He is a beautifully made hunter and has hunted with four Leicestershire packs.

He has been enjoyed by multiple riders and is 100% to do.”

Dressage judges love him and he also has a super jump, being athletic and careful. He has been unaffiliated showjumping, hunting and cross-country schooling, finding it all very easy and taking it in his stride. He has a lovely compact frame making him really easy to ride and he does everything in a snaffle. He is a delight to deal with both at home and at a competition. 100% to do.”
