Finn is the perfect horse for someone looking for a bold, straightforward, talented, and super fun jumper to produce up the Eventing levels.
He is a straight and attractive mover who works well on the flat. Good lateral work and coming along nicely with his medium paces, simple changes etc...
Finn is a forward thinking ride with a light mouth and well-balanced paces. He loves to have a job to do and is a pleasure to train.
To date, Finn has mainly competed BS (both in Ireland and the UK) as this was his owners preferred discipline. He has 208 BS points, and in a few short months, he helped his competitively inexperienced 17 year old rider to move from 80cm to Newcomers, achieving lots of double clears along the way. He is a careful, scopey jumper who is quick and clever with his legs and is not fussed when having to help out from the occasional missed stride. Looking to have plenty of scope to progress up from his current level.
Finn is XC schooled, and although this is not something his current rider has done competitively with him, she has had great fun and success taking him XC schooling with her school. He is a lovely forward but polite ride in open spaces.
Finn is a wonderfully forward thinking, bold boy with plenty of blood in his breeding. He is also really strong and trainable in all 3 disciplines. Beacuse of this we really feel that Eventing is where his true competitive talents will be in the future, and although his XC experience is a little bit behind the rest, he is sure to catch up very swiftly with some work on this, and will certainly be ready for some runs this season.
Good to hack both alone and in company. Good in all of the country lane traffic we have met with him. 100% box, shoe, clip, catch etc...
Up to date with jabs, teeth, physio and recently passed general vet check.
Same home from a 5 year old and only for sale now due to A level commitments and future gap year plans.
Not suitable for a nervous or novice rider as he is a talented horse who loves his work. Entirely suitable for a confident, ambitious adult or young rider looking for a partner to be competitively successful with.
