2008 16h Dutch WB/TB Gelding. "Billy" is a talented jumper or event prospect for the rider on a budget. He is still somewhat green, but is an athletic and willing participant in his daily training sessions. He has shown a great deal of aptitude in his jumping schools, with an especially powerful and careful hind end, a trait much sought after by jumper riders.
Billy is extremly brave and loves to jump. He is a somewhat forward horse but is not hot or difficult, and never does anything bad. He is sound with excellent bone, a big barrel, and huge solid feet. He is very sweet and is a real character who would love to have his own person.
He has no vices, lives in or out, hack out alone or in company, and is making great strides in his training. In his first free jumping session he easily cleared 1.20m (4') and obviously has scope for plenty more! He is an ideal project for an ambitious junior or amateur looking for a jumper or event prospect on a budget, or for a professional to bring up through the levels. His breeder/owner has too many young horses and no rider at this time, so he is priced to sell. Price will increase with training and showing mileage. Get this talented youngster now while the price is right!
