Description
‘Christian Grey’ as we call him , what a little oil painting this lad is. Not to mention, the heart of sheer gold he has too
17hh, 5yo, steel grey, French TB gelding
No lumps or bumps nor vices
Christian is beautiful to do everything with on the ground. He is as kind as you could wish for.
Perfect to catch, loads and travels like an absolute dream, easy to muck out around etc , a pleasure to take out and about, settled into any routine , lives in or out without bother. Enjoys being groomed and pampered and is super loving and affectionate. A horse who enjoys your company
Christian is fresh out of racing so is by no means schooled. However , has three super attractive paces , an exceptionally willing and switched on brain , a lovely mouth and a beautiful way of going. You can already see everything is there waiting for the foundations to be installed and produced upon. He would be an excellent ROR prospected / Riding club / event type. Ridden by my more nervous yard girl who’s taken a huge shine to him , as has everyone who meets him!!
Loves to jump , bold and brave with a great technique and obvious scope. All be it , very green but working very well over coloured poles and would have exceptional potential in this sphere
Also popping logs etc out hacking very willingly
Christian hacks out well. He’s happy to do on his own or in a string and shows to be really sensible , bold, and reliable
Stands at mounting block , opens gates etc
We have taken Christian to the beach where he was just outstanding. He travelled in the raging heat, stuck in three hours of traffic and came off the lorry on the beach front totally unbothered , ready to explore. Again, he was certainly bold and got straight into the fun. There is no better feeling than the wind in your hair at full gallop or a horse like this! Took him in a simple snaffle , cantered infront and behind. Was happy to come back down for a walk in between canters etc - again just showing to have a really desirable brain to become the most fantastic general riding horse / competing prospect
Retired from racing with no injuries
Has had a wind op that would affect his general riding abilities and is very common
Christian has been one of my favourites so far this year. I will only sell him to a home that has the knowledge and stability he deserves
