Once again Hopper proved himself by tazking THIRD in the State at Training Level Open. His scores just got better and better over the four days, showing him to be the ultimate competitor! Grasshopper is destined to be a Dressage Rockstar, following in the footsteps of so many of his Siblings. With scores as high as 9's for gaits, and consistent 70's all season long, he shows tons of potential. His wonderful attitude and ease of learning come so naturally to him. A Dutch/ Selle Francais cross, Hopper is a tall, big boned Gentleman and will mature to over 17hh. Very suitable for any tall rider, yet sensitive enough for the petite rider. He is a pleasure to be around and to work with both on the ground and in the saddle. He has a puppy dog personality and loves attention. He has had a very Professional start. His gaits are huge and ground covering, his Canter is WOW! He is a dream to sit, nicely forward with an amazing half-halt. Always an eye catcher. Hopper has also showed talent and potential in his jumping ability when free-jumped. and will begin under saddle very soon. He is currently in Training with Brenda Peters-Beare in Pleasanton Ca. USEF Young Horse Nominated.
