Opinions on this horse

QUALITY YOUNG HORSE
16hh 5 year old registered Irish Sport horse gelding by High Roller out of a Diamond Lad mare
He is a delight to hack out alone and in company as nothing fazes him
He has good paces, and is going to do a good test - His show jumping is spectacular and easily the best jumper I have had for a while
He has cross country schooled over drops ditches etc and proved to be as impressive as his show jumping
He is currently competing at British Novice level and was 4th in his first unaffiliated ODE with a double clear
He has an exceptionally calm temperament and is not at all sharp
Would suit a mother and daughter scenario, but has undoubtedly got the ability to make him a serious eventing or show jumping prospect




* I want to do JRN's and novives mayb even go further. Does it look like this horse has the scope??

Ner ner ner ner nerrrrr

:P

Iv already seen him once and am going back 2 see him again mayb on sunday.

I have tried about 6 horses and i liked him the best. I just thought mayb that other horses i have seen had a more powerful jump. His flatwork was a tad green but i enjoyed riding him and i felt he would be easy to work with

I like him a lot.

He looks scopey enougth to do at least intermediate!
He is only 5 and it does not look like he has done too much too quickly, which is why also he is a tad green.

I would judge on his temperament, is he highly trainable? Is he the type that will try to please. Because in eventing that is more important than any scope of flashy paces.

good luck hope you find the right horse
