Description
IDx TB risng 6 chestnut gelding 16.2hh
Amazing temperament with willing trainable attitude. Super breeding and beautiful rhythmic
movement, with lots of potential in any discipline. Scopey bold jump but very sensible and
doesn’t rush, learns quickly from mistakes and confident to have a go.
Charlie was shown in hand as a 2yr old competed at low level dressage and showjumping as a
4/5 year old and also been xc schooling successfully.
He will hack alone and in company, never strong or silly although needs confidence around
large tractors. He is good to clip, with the farrier, vet and dentist, his teeth and vacs all up to
date and he has been seen by our physio.
He loads and travels in a box, however not a natural loader and needs some support in this
area and can hurry to unload. Recent 5 stage vetting / 5 stage insurance vetting
Charlie is a young playful chap who really benefits from having ‘his person’, sane and sensible
with an older head on young shoulders.
Charlie was purchased recently with the hope of him being a long term member of our RDA
team, and whilst he showed a great trainable attitude being trained quickly to our mounting hoist
and special equipment, he did not cope well in the large herd environment (of more than 5-8
others), or with a different number of handlers and riders. He became quite stressed and
unhappy with the riding school routine resulting in the early onset of ulcers. These have now
been treated with our vet and he is starting to flourish again.
Charlie has nothing but love to give and is always keen to please, but will need an experienced
new owner who will put time and effort into building a bond with him and continuing his
education.
Sold with bridle and small wardrobe, new fitted saddle available at extra cost.
