"Bunti" possesses the modern Glamourdale movement. Glamourdale/Van Olst has already taken front stage in Europe and world-wide. His dam sire is Krack C, also, no introduction is necessary. His dam has produced top performers in Belgium. Belgium breeder, Haras de Quarebbe, has capitalized on what it means to be a backyard breeder "in the know". They maintain a bird's eye view of her babies and are handled and interacted with daily. (Young horses with real horse-whisperer professionalism). Once imported, Bunti began to grow and grow, and regardless of the "no starch, no sugar diet", he now stands a towering 18hh. Left to grow as a stallion as long as possible, he now, as a gelding, shines with a healthy and mature body. He loves to be a super show-off. He is a pleasure to work with, though not for the timid rider. He walks, trots and canters clearly with gymnastic and rhythmic freedom. He understands stretching without falling, lengthening without rushing, and loading without sticking in the "sit". What a lovely and even push from behind. The careful lessons with his bits (already introduced to double) have never been overly demanding. He occasionally will look up and take a peep around. Why not? However, he's making an effort to become more consistent. He is a partner in the journey, whether on trails or in his well-groomed (never too deep) footing. With a competitor-like mentality, he has been treated with great hopes for a star's future. He receives customary and natural holistic care...acupuncture, TCHerbs, massages, professional farrier work, top feed (with current HTMA nutrition results) providing cool energy feed, forage, friuts and vegetables, as well as, an up-to-date fitted saddle. Most shoeings are accompanied by radiographs to be assured of proper angles. His trainer is a young horse professional with many years of cross-training to enhance the mind/body. He has learned well. Ubuntu has been 'properly' and 'thoughtfully' exposed to the happy show environment, not the indulgent competition arena. He has been lightly (never tightly) introduced to wearing side-reins, but never forced nor framed up in order to travel in relentless circles; however, every circle traveled has been a true geometric circle.
