Handsome buckskin D pony mare

It is with mixed feelings that we are looking for a new, wonderful home for our handsome, talented New Forest buckskin mare. A true dressage star.

13 years old
1.48 m
sire Orchid’s Castanii,

She also has an interesting pedigree.
She has had a foal in the past, competed at Z2 dressage with her previous owner and jumped 0.90 in the past.

She is very well brought up, very pleasant to handle, easy to load, very relaxed on the horse trailer. Well-behaved under saddle too, can be a bit spooky, but an experienced rider easily rides through that. Due to her alertness, she makes the best combination with an experienced rider, no beginner. Not jumpy or doing crazy antics, just a real sport pony, keen and talented.

In terms of dressage, our 11-year-old daughter gets along very well with her. She has really grown in that area thanks to the pony. Showjumping, on the other hand, does not click. The pony enjoys showjumping but also finds it very exciting at the same time and needs an experienced rider who gives her confidence. Our daughter cannot give her that stability and security. That is where the shoe pinches, because our daughter would like to jump.

The pony can move very well, has 3 very good paces including an excellent extended trot.

Her vaccinations are up to date, she has nice clean legs, is well-behaved at the farrier and also social with our other horse (not dominant). She is very content both in the stable and in the paddock. Here she has also stayed outside at night in the summer, which she also liked just fine. She is truly a sweetheart, a cuddler, an honest pony. That did not necessarily make the choice easy.

We had her clinically examined upon purchase. Re-examination is allowed at buyer's expense.

Her very nice Busse dressage saddle (custom-fitted to her) can optionally be taken over for an additional price.
