For Sale
Phoenix TYG, born August 18, 2020, is a lovely Rubinstein/Abhang/Calypso 16.3 gelding with smooth, floaty gaits and a calm, easy-going mind. He is now walking and trotting around under saddle He is pictured above is with a 6'2" rider, (but, since he is not particularly wide through the barrel, he can accommodate a shorter person). Currently, he is being ridden under saddle in a ring with a caveson, until he finishes cutting his late 3 yr old teeth. His training has been slow and steady (the old way) to slowly solidify partnership, trust (when exposed to the unfamiliar "scary" stuff) and allowing him time to grow and develop into himself mentally and
physicaly without injury for long term soundness. He is now mentally and physically ready to start serious training. He has a great work ethic, forward attitude, only requires soft aids, is naturally flexible with lovely, naturally uphill hind-end movement. He learns fast and is alert but not spooky.
No injuries, colic or issues, he has always been sound and barefoot and is UTD on trimming, vaccinations, and worming. His owner/breeder is 74 yrs old with 60 yrs experience and retiring due to health reasons.
He is easy-going, kind, intelligent, eager to please with excellent ground manners, He is a quick learner, with a good work ethic, easy to handle and train due to his Rubinstein bloodlines.
He has been handled since birth and for the past year his training has included ground-driving/double-lunging, lunging with side reins carrying a 40lb. Western saddle, loading into our trailer, and has just started free-jumping and enjoys jumping (currently on hold since our summer ground is VERY hard gravel topped, adobe ring base-footing). He was gelded Dec. 2022, is barefoot with regular trimmings and lives in a large mixed pasture with both mares and geldings.
He has a sweet curious, friendly disposition, natural intelligence, effortless movement, quality conformation, impressive DNA and is overall a very chill guy. Because of all these qualities, he would would be suitable for an amateur working with a trainer to develop into a top notch dressage or hunter partner. Although, with his DNA we wouldn't be surprised at all if he became an eventer or all-around superhorse.
BLOODLINE REFERENCES
Phoenix is a perfect example of the old European bloodlines with very good JC genes, to give top performance in our new “hot weather” world. For refinement, endurance in the hot weather of global warming, and a “modern look”, his mother (Didn't You Know AKA Carmen) is a Distorted Humor (Northern Dancer, Danzig, Pas de Nom,, Seattle Slew) mare.
His half-brother is a successful eventer in North Carolina,
Phoenix is fancy enough to excel in Hunters or Dressage (like his father Rosall). He has a amateur-friendly mind, a sweetheart personality and the ability to perform at top show level
Phoenix's mother (Didn't You Know AKA Carmen) is a Northern Dancer, Pas de Nom, Distorted Humor, , mare (see "Didn't You Know" under equiline 5x pedigree search.)
Phoenix's sire Rosall is a very quiet, talented imported son of Rosario, who started as a dressage horse in his younger years and then became a children's hunter later (which absolutely speaks volumes for his character). Rosall was approved for breeding by RPSI/Westfalian, ISR/OldNA, and GOV.
