Really hard decision to sell my boy through no fault of his own.
15hh 11 year old gelding
Jacob loves to hack, either alone or in company. He needs a confident, competent rider as he is excitable and forward going, and can be strong. He's currently ridden in a 3 ring gag on the middle ring.
If you're looking for a horse that will take you for a blast across a forest green, and then walk politely on the buckle, he's the boy for you. Jacob goes through rivers, pops logs, opens gates, isn't phased by loose dogs and running ponies, and he'll let you hop on and off easily. He is not spooky or silly and doesn't throw shapes, he's just keen to stretch his legs!
Jacob is green in the school simply due to lack of access, but he's forward going, responsive, and completely willing to listen and learn.
Jacob is fit, currently going out at least 3 times a week. He's a good doer, he has been barefoot since Christmas and copes fine even with a mile's roadwork to get on the forest. He's a dream to load, clip, have feet trimmed and behaves for the vet. He's currently living in a mixed herd and lives out 24/7.
He's recently had to have an incisor removed but it doesn't affect him. Other than that no lumps or bumps. He's got typical thick cob feathers which I keep trimmed as he's previously had mites.
Jacob is a sweetheart who would suit a competent teenager or smaller adult who just wants to go out and have some no fuss fun.
£5000 or £5300 with fully fitted tack.
