Neabhan
15hh 5yo 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. Trainable and willing.
Neabhan is a real pocket rocket on the hunting field. He is bold, quick over the ground and a super jumper. He keeps up easily with the frontrunners and likes to be where the action is. Mannerly and polite but does love the job, he doesn't want to be bumbling along at the back on a loose rein whilst the rest of the field is off having a whale of a time. This is his first season so still a little green but very game and willing. Would suit a forward-thinking lady or teen up for a fun day out!
Has done some cross country schooling, also bold enough to team chase.
Much quieter to ride at home and doesn't love his schoolwork but complies obediently enough. More of an outdoor horse, would prefer to school in a field or outdoor arena than my indoor.
Good off the leg, starting to take the contact and showing some very promising work but we haven't done lots of schoolwork with him so very much lacking in this area currently. Will come on well with the right rider with potential for dressage and working hunter. 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. Hasn't said no to anything we've asked so far. He is brilliant to hack, marches out and is un-phased by traffic. Will go first or last, good in open spaces. He has a bit about him so not for a novice or windy rider.
Straightforward and 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. Please keep this in mind when viewing. He likes people and attention but he does want someone he can trust and really thrives from a close partnership. Once he knows and trust you he will go anywhere and do anything for you. No vices.
