He is not a novice ride.
Idealy someone who is 16+ years of age or a small adult.
Bertie does hack out alone, however he does not go out very far due to having "attachemnt" issues to other horses. He will go out alone with a lead on foot, sometimes withought a lead if you give him a push and are very consistent.
He can be spooky and hates bikes, busses and the occasional dog - he likes to choose ????.
Bertie is still young and learning so needs a loaner who will give him the time and attention needed when I am unable to.
