Mannhattan Gem aka Emmy is a Stunning 9-year-old, 16.3h registered Oldenburg mare out of Mannhattan. She has successfully shown 1st level and schooled 2nd level with potential for more. Emmy has three powerful gaits. Last year, we began to work on collection of the walk, trot and canter. I started to school some very basic half-step work, and she showed potential for a phenomenal piaffe down the road.

She has received 9’s on gaits and consistently has scored in the high 60's, low 70's . Her show millage has been local for the majority; however, we have been to larger venues such at HITs Saugerties which she handled well. She has not been in consistent work at no fault of her own, but my lack of time to devote to her. She was in work last year, showing first level, has been in very light work this summer and needs to regain her fitness level. She has been exposed to some light jumping and could easily excel as a jumper with the right training. Emmy certainly has a WOW factor that turns heads everywhere she goes. She would be best suited to land in the hands of a professional or talented rider with the guidance of a professional to finish her properly. Although generally level headed, she is not suited for a beginner or AA. Given her athleticism, she needs an experienced rider that has worked with talented young horses before.

I have trail ridden her successful alone or with company. While in consistent work, I generally keep her shod up front. She self-loads and is an easy horse to trailer out. I have taken her on numerous trips alone and have been just fine.

It saddens me to see her go as I had planned to continue her training and see her progress through the levels; however, unexpected circumstances force me to find her an alternative situation quickly. Offered at the very low price of $15,000 in order to reflect a quick sale. If she was put back in consistent work, she is easily at $25,000 plus horse. I may entertain a reasonable offer for the right situation. I have ridden with several professionals that claim that she has the potential for PSG with the right training program.
