Double O Seven
All Ticker

2003 Gelding by Show A Heart.

Really beautifully put together horse.  16.3 hh

Retired from racing 1 October 2009.  Ready to begin a wonderful showing career.

Small tendon tear 14% Vet report freely available.

A very sensible and quiet horse to train.  Easy at the races.  Always holds beautiful flesh.

 

Rockleigh Big Time

 

My darling big horse is seeking a new home.

He has been Supreme Cleveland Exhibit at the AWHA show both years he attended.

Champion Prelim HOY at Bowral Dressage.  Winning plenty of Novice dressage and getting seconds in his Elementary’s so far.

He does have a few “special” foibles but generally if anything he can be quite sluggy.   He has a lovely canter which inspires confidence in nervous riders.

Normally a horse of his size, temperament and calibre would be around $15,000 - however x-rays show that he has a bone spur on his near pastern.

He is fine and sound, however I have been told that at times this may affect his ongoing higher level competition dressage career. - this means there will be days when he is not OK and will need days off.

For this reason someone who wants a big, quiet, cheap to run, lovely horse - and not aim for high level dressage would be ideal for him.  The vet says that he will be fine for walk trot and canter - prelim, schooling etc and on trail rides.

Well managed he might be like Mel from Fortissimo Freestyles horse who was diagnosed with a bone spur six years ago and continues to compete.

If you have any concerns at all you are welcome to talk to the Vet direct by phoning Retford Veterinary Clinic on 02 4861 1166 - please quote his stable name “Lurch”.

I truly love this horse and prospective owners will need safe home references.

This filly has been sold!

In this pony's short little life he has been exposed to it all.

Started as a newcomer last season was shown by small 13 year old. Was reserve champion Hunter Pony in very strong competition on his 1st weekend out competing. Has 9 wins to his credit from a limited season including many champions and even a Supreme!

Has also competed at PC and has been graded D grade but is training B Grade (NSW PC). He is training lateral movements and has the ability to go up the grades in dressage. Was just out of the placings at Barastoc 2010 Pony Dressage in a very strong field at his first Dressage attempt.

Lunges on hand commands and voice commands and is a pleasure to have. Easy to clip, rug, feed, very very sound and any inspection is invited. He has been ridden by beginners in controlled circumstances but would best suit an ambitious child or small adults.

He has been hunting all this season with his 13 year year old rider. Jumping everything put in his path.

References available.

He is registered SHC, Riding Pony, Part welsh and EFA.
Please phone for more information. Many more pictures available.

This is a heartbreaking genuine sale and he is only for sale as his rider has too many ponies in work this year.

Please only genuine inquiries.

Priced at $12,500

Telephone: 0427 249 537 in Victoria

He is the most delightful pony

and will be very sadly missed.

He is my special little man.
