Tall, elegant, classic Irish Sport Horse gelding. Beautiful stamp of a horse, straigtforward and lovely character to ride and work with. Good technique over a fence, lovely canter. Clean legs, good feet.
Backed late in his 4-year-old year, produced slowly with lots of unafilliated jumping, combined training and arena eventing outings. First season British Eventing 2020, clears at BE100 level. Has entries in and will continue to run to end of season.
Good to do in every way, an uncomplicated and genuine horse with plenty of ability.
Sire Cruising Harry (Harlequin du Carel x XXX by Cruising) has nice young stock coming through in eventing, stamped with good jumping technique and fantastic canter. Cruising on the sire's dam side brings classic eventing qualities as well as a beautifully set on front end.
The dam line is interesting as well, with Gentle Lassie also producing 5* and championship event horse Kilrodan Abbott, who jumped for Canada at 2014 World Equestrian Games in Caen and London 2012 Olympics.
Genuine sort hard to find, vetted and clean x-rays when bought as a 4-year-old. 16.2hh + and a bit of growing still left to do.
