Sweet sweet sweet beginner perfect sports shire. Mainly trained dressage, but free jumps 3 feet happily. Would make an excellent fox hunter. He has done tons of trail riding, been schooled at Pine Hill eventing facility and even drives!! He has 3 really nice gaits and is surprisingly light and rhythmic for such a big guy. His confirmation is flawless as is his disposition, and he loves people and attention. Maximus would make a great adult lesson horse or beginner horse (but keep in mind that he is very large). He is a smooth ride (trot is easy to sit, canter is a dream) and he has no tricks up his sleeve. He is very willing to always try his best and despite his calm nature he is NOT lacy or difficult to move forward. He is well trained and behaves great on the ground, under saddle and in all imaginable settings. He is a very easy keeper!! Max has been with me since he was born and a loving great environment is a must!!!!!

Also selling Amish made buggy ($4000) and super quality synthetic driving harness ($850). Will include with Maximus if interested.
