Handsome 2008 black & white Gypsy Vanner X 16.2 hand gelding. Friar Tuck is a gentleman with stellar ground manners and an endearing personality. He is a solid Second Level Dressage horse with scores over 65% and First Level scores of 72%. He is schooling Third Level with easy, soft half passes and green flying changes. Tuck has been developed correctly in professional training since age 5 with FEI rider Stephanie Blockley-Clarke while teaching his amateur owner how to improve her own riding skills. He feels soft and responsive in the bridle with no pulling, as you might not expect from a draft type and is light to the leg aids as well. His gentle soul makes him a perfect candidate for an eager adult amateur or junior rider who wants a fun mount to further their own dressage education. He has proven to be reliable and easy to handle in the competition atmosphere, which further confirms his suitability for a non-pro. His grand stature is impressive, but he is very respectful of personal space and has learned horsemanship groundwork techniques. He bathes, clips, cross ties and trailers with quiet patience.He is only regretfully offered for sale as his owner's back issues prevent her from riding as much as she would like.

$30,000 - consideration given to a perfect match and exceptional home. Payments would be acceptable.

He is located at Meadowgate east of I5 at exit 215 north of Seattle, WA an hour. Should you be interested in meeting him please contact Stephanie Blockley - Clarke at 360 770 6284 or at [email protected] or by pm on fb
