Wally is an 8 yr old Welsh/TB gelding. I’ve owned him since he was 3 yrs old, broken him in and trained him myself. He has basic foundations in Parelli horsemanship training. He is not a beginners horse and needs someone who can be firm but flexible and understanding.
He would suit someone experienced with young or green horses. He has been off the property for dressage lessons and has been sensible. He travels well in the float and has previously been kept at agistment centres, where he was always well behaved around other horses.
He has had minimal work over the past 3 yrs due to my career and this is the reason for the sale as I am moving OS. He can be dragged out of the paddock after 3 mths, given a quick lunge and hopped on with no issues. He is great ridden out in the paddock by himself and will likely be a good jumper once he builds some fitness. He has basic dressage foundations and works in a lovely frame. He has natural talent for lateral movements and an absolutely divine canter. He is a horse that thrives with attention and consistency. He wants to please you when you ride him, and can get frustrated when he doesn’t understand the message. He is lazy on the lunge but quite forward under saddle- definitely not a horse that requires a lot of leg. He self loads on the float and is always the first to come to the gate to say hi. He is a lovely cheeky horse to have around.
He was sent to a trainer for sales preparation this year and reared (one event). He has never done this under saddle during the time I have owned him. He was brought home after this, has been ridden once with no issues. I unfortunately don’t have time to sort out the damage done by this trainer. We made the decision to keep him in the paddock, however he then kicked a family member when being fed. Again out of character for him, likely due to not being in work or being handled. He now can’t be kept on the family property and needs to be sold. I have declared all problems honestly. This horse has always worked well for me and was always the horse I felt safe to jump on when he was out of work. He works best in a running martingale to help him understand the contact.
