Safe, Allrounder, Gypsy cob x

Description

‘My Picasso’, Apache

Selling on behalf of owner, I present to you, one of the safest, most predictable and reliable horses I have crossed paths with.
Apache is a 12-year-old, 15.2hh, Gypsy Cob x, who has the looks, the talent, and the temperament to match.

Apache has attended many competitions and outings, including horse trials and two-day events, combined training and showjumping days, pony clubs, games, clinics, lessons, as well as proving himself as a very reliable and mature lead pony on bush rides when assisting young horses with growing their confidence. He especially loves trail rides and is extremely brave and rarely spooks.
Apache is fantastic to take out, the same as he is at home, and will stand eating hay for hours in a new environment, also extremely consistent and reliable when riding out and at home, always the same, and will keep you safe in any situation he can.

Although he can be a good safe plodder, Apache can get strong when excited, and for this reason will need a capable, confident rider. However, he has never bucked, bolted or reared, has never done anything nasty and has absolutely no dirt in him.

Apache absolutely loves to jump, this is where his talent lies, with me he has cleared a 1.15m course during training and proved that he will keep you safe even in the stickiest situations. However, due to his heavy breed and life longevity, his owner does not want him going to a high-level eventing home, but a home where someone wants a reliable, true allrounder for trail riding, adult riding, and low-level eventing, which wants to go out and have a fuss free time. He is also a very quick learner (and quite smart!) and is willing to learn new things.
He is good to s/c/w/f, up to date with teeth, worming and farrier.

Apache does have a slight head shaking (which is controlled by a fly mask), which prevents him from being a high-level dressage horse, this does not currently impede on his happiness or ability to be ridden, however is reflected in his price. I am more than happy to discuss this with anyone interested as this is an extremely honest sale.
Apache will be going to the best of homes only, your suitability for him will be assessed prior to try rides/viewings so we waste no one’s time.
