Description
Buster is an OTTB, retired from racing in 2023. I bought him to essentially happy hack and have some fun with but due to lack of time and money I just sadly can’t keep him anymore.
He is 16.1/2hh and turned 14 in April, in his previous home he hunted, showed and did a bit of jumping (not his favourite thing) along with other things but hasn’t done any of this with me other than a couple of small logs out hacking. Buster does everything in a snaffle, he is a brilliant hack, hacks in company will go first or last, does hack alone he just likes to call! This gets better the more he does. He is impeccable in open spaces and pulls up easily every time. He was sold to me as he isn’t the keenest jumper but I have discovered he does enjoy jumping logs out hacking (haven’t actually schooled him over jumps since i bought him but know he has done this in the past, although is not his preferred activity!). I have flat schooled him a couple of times and he knows what he’s doing and has three lovely paces but this isn’t his favourite thing and he can get a bit stroppy/frustrated if you do too much of it. He is a very clever little horse with an awesome brain, he is good for farrier (hot shod), clipping, bathing, excellent to travel, good with dogs. He is moody around his dinner but has never kicked or bitten, just ears back typical racehorse, I have taught him to reverse out of your space before giving him his feed so this behaviour isn’t at all threatening. When I bought him he was living out with 4 other mares, but I’ve had him in his own paddock. He currently lives out 24/7 but he doesn’t mind being stabled either. Only going to the best of homes, this is a devastating sale but in this current climate I really don’t have any other option. 💔
Currently out of work due to me breaking my wrist so sold as seen from field, he’s had time off in the past with me and as he came back into work he was nappy/ had a bit of a buck as i set off but after a week of regular work this disappeared.
Looking for £350️⃣0️⃣ but home is more important than price
Based in Nether Wallop
Comes with wardrobe of saddle, bridle and rugs as well as other bits and bobs.
Message me on ************ for any questions or to come see him, serious enquiries only please as this is hard enough already without people messing me around.
