Rosein – Irish X Hanovarian 5yr old scopey,talented and easy.

By Leslie on , Filed Under c) $15,000-$30,000, Canada East, Sport Horse Nation and , ,

Description: This 16hh well built mare has been broken and trained by Selena O'Hanlon. She has done the 2012/2013 Winter season in Ocala with Selena, stabled and training with Bruce Davidson. Her attitude is totally workmanlike whether she is doing flatwork or jumping. She does not get keyed up or excited and from the very beginning she has accepted ditches, banks and water as a relaxed part of everyday life. She has no bogey fences and does not get nervous. Her dressage is easy and her show jumping is good enough for the A circuit hunter/jumper rings. Her changes are there. She would field hunt effortlessly as she hacks just as easily in a big group as she does on her own. Manners, training, ability and above all, an intrinsic desire to please, make this mare a wonderful purchase for a rider at any level. She has all the talent in the world and is quiet and patient with more novice riders, typical pleasant Irish temperament with a lovely warmblood look and style. She will be on track to do a one star on the spring. Really fun YR prospect.

Nice gaits and well schooled on the flat, easily performs lengthenings, shoulders-in, haunches in, leg yield, turn on haunches and turn on forehand. She is careful, brave and bold over fences and can get strong and excited while jumping, so she needs a confident intermediate rider (a good teen would be fine).

Very good at shows. She is an EASY and fun horse to have around, and she has a very sweet demeanor. Would be well suited as a jumper, eventer, fox hunter or lower level dressage horse.

Description: Ellie is a May 2002 Appendix mare currently competing at the Novice level in Eventing. She won her first novice outing at Otter Creek Horse Trials on her dressage score of 30. She's a quiet, uncomplicated, fancy horse. She loves her job, loves to jump, and is super easy to ride. Would be great for an adult amateur or young rider.

Stands for vet, farrier. Loads, bathes, clips, ties. I sadly have to sell Ellie due to traveling this summer and leaving for college in the fall.
