A beautiful, eye-catching mare with quality breeding, three lovely paces and a genuine, brave attitude to her work. Berry really is a super allrounder with something to offer in every sphere.
Berry is a stunning 16.2hh, 9-year-old coloured mare, registered with the highly regarded Anglo European Studbook and boasting some lovely eventing bloodlines, including Clover Hill, Dutch Gold, Basil III and Masterpiece VII.
She combines quality and presence with a lovely attitude and plenty of ability, making her an exciting prospect for someone wanting a versatile competition horse to enjoy.
Berry is currently owned by an amateur, older lady who has enjoyed her primarily as a pleasure horse and low-level riding club partner. She has been very much loved and enjoyed, but in all honesty, her true ability and potential have barely been tapped into. She has so much more to offer the right person, making her a particularly exciting opportunity for someone looking to progress and have fun along the way.
On the flat, Berry works nicely in a snaffle and has three correct, flashy and expressive paces. Her movement is certainly good enough to make her a lovely dressage prospect, and I feel she has the ability to achieve qualifying scores for the regional championships at Prelim and Novice level this winter.
She also has a fantastic attitude to jumping. Brave, willing and natural ability , she genuinely seems to love her job. She has competed over 80cm tracks, taking fillers and competition atmosphere in her stride, and is showing plenty more scope at home.
Berry would be particularly suited to someone wanting a horse to enjoy all aspects of riding club and pony club life. She has been hunter trialling, cross-country schooling and to riding club camps, all of which she absolutely loves. She is the sort who enjoys getting out and about, having fun and being part of the action.
She is also good to hack in company and is straightforward to travel, bath and shoe.
Berry would suit a variety of different riders She is perfect for someone looking for a genuine horse with quality and ability to progress together. Ideally no complete novice riders as she is a mare who enjoys having a job and appreciates a rider with the confidence to get out there and have fun
Full wardrobe and tack included.
A very sad sale due to the owner's health and a change in circumstances.
