Neabhan
15hh 2015 chestnut Irish gelding. Pocket rocket hunting machine!
Quality compact model with good bone, a very attractive stamp with a sweet outlook. A serious mover with an active trot and a super uphill, balanced canter. A comfortable and genuine ride, not nappy or strong.
Neabhan is a real pocket rocket on the hunting field. He is bold, quick over the ground and a super jumper who will hop 4ft hedges for fun! He keeps up easily with the frontrunners and likes to be where the action is. Seriously love the job, he doesn't want to be bumbling along at the back on a loose rein, he is up for a good time! Very game and willing. Would suit a forward-thinking lady or teen up for a fun day out! Always in a snaffle, never strong, will go all day.
Has done some cross country schooling, also bold and quick enough to team chase.
Great to hack. Good in traffic and open spaces, will lead or follow and really marches on. Goes alone or in company.
More of an outdoor horse, much prefers to school in a field or outdoor arena than my indoor. Has the potential to produce some really good work in the school with the right rider in the right place but he isn't currently showing it here - he would rather be out doing. Lunges well.
He is popping a course of showjumps really sweetly and is very straightforward to and from a fence. Jumps coloured and natural fences and is very bold, schooling over fillers and water trays. Very careful, doesn't want to touch a pole. Hasn't said no to anything we've asked so far. Fun, forward ride but can be a bit sharp so not for a novice or windy rider - would best suit a rider looking for something to hunt and hack as that is what he does best. If you are calling about him as an allrounder you would need to be prepared to put the work in. He is able to be viewed and tried out hunting or hacking.
Rewarding young horse for a capable rider. Mannerly on the ground and wants to please but he is still a bit green and can be wary of strangers on the ground. Regularly ridden by different riders. He likes people and attention but he does want someone he can trust and really thrives from a close partnership. No vices.
