Perfect City.
Percy has been with us for just over 2 years now, he came off the track injury and vice free and has been retraining here, focusing mainly on dressage. He has 3 lovely paces and has always scored well in the dressage ring and placing at each show. He has also done some showing with my mum and won his first ever show, as well as getting my mum out competing in dressage for her first time, taking care of her and behaving like such a gentleman.
He has come on trips to college with me, both overnight and day trips, every time settling in like a dream and never behaving any differently. While he has been at college with me we have done jumping clinics where he has shown lots of potential and scope, as well as musical rides with loud music and crowds, being brought in at the last minute and never putting a foot wrong.
He has XC schooled, going up and down steps, through water and over ditches, this is still a green area as it was not my focus but he has shown promise here. He’s bombproof out in traffic, as we have heavy farm traffic constantly here, so there’s never a quiet ride out but he always behaves in front of the vehicles, be it tractors, lorries, motorcycles etc. He hacks alone or in company and is safe in open fields, he’s never taken off with me, but he can be a typical thoroughbred and forward so no novices.
He’s for sale due to no fault of his own, I am at university so can’t give him the time he needs and have plans for the summer which means I won’t be here to ride him, and I’d hate to see him go to waste. He deserves a home where he can be in work and taken out and enjoyed, as he has such a lovely character and is such a people person. He’s great with children and dogs around him and is never nasty.
He is good for the farrier and the vet and is good to clip and shoe. He travels well on our 7.5t lorry, either in company or alone. He has four clean legs, no lumps or bumps. He lives in or out, currently in during the night due to wet ground.
His price reflects the current workload he’s in, as I haven’t been able to have Percy in consistent work while I’ve been at university. The more work that goes into this boy, the more his price will increase.
Only serious enquiries please as this is a difficult sale, he really is one in a million and will be greatly missed by the whole family.
