Old fashioned stamp with leg in each corner and fantastic pedigree. Her Grandsires, Earl of Castlefrench and Gwennic De Goariva need no introduction, both renowned Competition Champions and sires of top class performance Stock. Members of her close family have historically successfully competed at HOYS, RI and represented GB and Irish teams.
Exceptionally talented, she has been brought on slowly and will make a top class WHP/Eventer. Lovely balanced mover and athletic by nature. Brave Cross Country. Bold SJ. She has been produced correctly with the support of professional coaches. Without doubt she is a Team prospect in the making for a competitive junior who will continue building her confidence and increase her exposure to gain the competition mileage required to reach that goal.
She is stabled at a competition venue and therefore used to the atmosphere and hustle and bustle of Elite Competition going on round about her. When she has been taken out to other venues and training shows she has behaved impeccably on every occasion.
Superb temperament and lovely character. Everything about her is straightforward, catching, clipping, trimming, bathing, loading, travelling, dentist, Traffic etc. Hacks alone and in Company. Well behaved in open country. No, ifs, buts or hang-ups. Old head on young shoulders. Also very kind round little people on the ground and recently proven mannerly when ridden in open country by small (10yr old) child off leading rein.
This is a genuine and reluctant sale. She is only on the market for no other reason than the junior rider she was purchased for has outgrown her prematurely. She is such a delightful pony to work with and has taken her education so far in her stride, she clearly loves to work and to learn.
At 6yrs old whilst technically still a novice, she is fit and more than ready to go out and establish herself in competition across all disciplines.
We are looking for a 10 star, kind and knowledgeable long term home where she will continue her education and realise her full potential without being rushed or over-faced in view of her obvious talent and good nature. She is an ideal fit for a loving family where she will have a home for life and will pass down to younger siblings over time. Her Class 1 status means she is eligible for all M and M competitions. These credentials, combined with her superb temperament, make her an excellent candidate for breeding in later life. In short, genuine ponies of this calibre are few and far between. Finding her the right home is a priority. N/N HWSD
She can be viewed near Banbury, Oxfordshire where there are Excellent facilities on site. Vaccinations etc all up to date. Open to Vet. For further details, please call :- 01953 681895 or message Whatsapp 07551 495187 for call back.
