Fancy

Highlights

Currently successfully jumping 1.20–1.25m

Has won and placed at State Level Competitions

Willing, careful and well educated

Introduction: Fancy is a compact, athletic warmblood mare with proven experience and results. Sensitive and careful in the ring, Fancy is an educated, careful and competitive partner for the right rider.

Education, skills and experience: Fancy is well educated with an established level of flatwork, currently competing successfully to 1.20–1.25m in showjumping. She goes lightly and happily in a snaffle and is well versed in the basics, with good manners and exposure to busy environments.

General demeanour under saddle: Under saddle, Fancy is forward, sharp and responsive, offering a quality feel for a rider with an independent seat. She thrives with a clear, confident connection and consistent riding.

Current workload / fitness: Fancy is in regular work 5+ days per week and is currently competing.

Handling: On the ground Fancy is straightforward and polite: easy to catch, lead, tie, clip and wash; good for the farrier and vet; and she self-loads, travels quietly and unloads calmly. She is unbothered by dogs, livestock, farm machinery, busy roads, fireworks and general kid noise in her vicinity.

Feeding and management: Fancy does best with consistency and regular work. She is currently on two hard feeds per day with lucerne, and can be managed stabled 12 hours/paddocked 12 hours or kept in a paddock on her own as required.

Medical history: Fancy's hocks and stifles were X-rayed approximately two years ago and were 'clean'. Like any 13 year old performance horse, she does have some medical history which is fully disclosed in her Owner's Response Document - however, this does not affect performance. She is up to date with vaccinations and dental. Vet checks welcomed at the buyer’s expense.

Rider Suitability: Fancy suits a capable, confident rider who is already competing 1.00-1.10. The rider will be someone who enjoys a forward, sensitive mare and wants to compete to a maximum of 1.25m. She benefits from a rider who rides consistently 4+ times per week, communicates clearly, and builds a strong partnership. An ambitious young rider (18 yo plus) with coaching support would be well placed.

Reason for sale: Owner is looking to purchase and produce another young horse.
