Just turned 10 year old warmblood dressage mare, registered and branded First Premium with AWR. Bellisima has a lifetime USDF and USEF number.
Billi rides well in the ring, field and trails, and is calm, sane and happy to work. Billi has trailered to off site training and rides well. She has been stabled at a large barn for training in dressage as well as small jumps. She is very smart, and has had a few professional rides and knew WTC after her very first ride. She can do 10 meter circles, leg yields, shoulder in, trot lengthenings, stretchy trot, walk to canter transitions, she halts nicely square, starting walk piruoettes and is beginning haunches in. Billi is 16.1 hands, is large barreled and can hold a taller rider(rider in ad is 5'11"). She has a nice temperament. She has no vices towards people. She is a little social aloof to strangers, but to someone she knows, she will do anything. She received 8.1 for movement from AWR.
She has a nice energy level, not a slug and not hot, and comes back nicely from days off work. She can ride without spurs or a whip. She will respond to very quiet aids. She has good ground manners, ties nicely, leads anywhere (have pony'd her from a golf cart all over the property by herself), and loves baths and treats. She marches onto trailers and travels well. She stands well for the farrier and has nice big round hooves with great frogs. She wears front shoes. She does not like shots at all and requires a twitch for shots. Billi currently goes out with other mares and geldings in a large pasture, but will put a gelding in their place if needed. She is never challenging under saddle. She has a good work ethic. while I cannot say that she will not spook, she is not dangerous and does not have an agenda. She is never argumentative under saddle, she wants to please and be done. She is amateur friendly. She is a fun ride with big gaits, so she would do best with a rider with some experience, as she does better with riders who do not get off balance. Billi has never been shown, but I may one day do it.
I have owned this horse since she was 3 months old. I will continue dressage riding and small jumps until she is sold. She is regretfully for sale, because owner has accumulated too many young horses to get up and running. Currently in working condition. Multiple xrays on stifles, hocks and front hoofs available for pre purchase reviews. Looking for the right home, may be negotiable to the right situation.
