Bottega is a fantastic mover for modern sport dressage with three competitive gaits and a highlight in his canter. He is very comfortable to sit, not wide, and light in the bridle. He drove and competed in ridden dressage while in holland but hasn’t driven or shown yet since import. He is currently ready to show 1st and 2nd level and schooling all third level movements. He enjoys hacking out and seems unfazed by his soundings and overall tries very hard for his rider in all things. He is light and sensitive and would do best with at least an intermediate rider to keep guiding him on his path up the levels.
