Sold
17hh gelding by Wolkentanz II and out of a Geronimo mare. 'Ezra' is incredibly sweet and honest. Willing to work. Ridden by an amateur from the start of his training. No vices, easy to ride and uncomplicated, easy flying changes, and works well in groups of horses or alone. Soft mouth and sensitive to leg aid.
Ezra has been consistently schooled in Walk, Trot, and Canter. He is a natural to leg yielding and is a fast learner. Currently training in more lateral movements. He is naturally a very balanced and rhythmical horse that does flying lead changes in a pinch. Currently he is training in small amounts of collection and extension. Will be shown this year (2018) by a dressage rider.
Ezra is the type of horse you can leave for a week with no rides and then hop on and go. Handled by children and lead around by a nine year old child as a 2 year old. Honest as the day is long. He is only as hot as you make him. Only vice would be his baby spooks that have already progressed out of him with aging. With experience he would make the perfect junior mount. Despite his size Ezra is not heavy in the hand or tough to work with. Easiest horse I am currently riding, able to be galloped forward and brought back to a soft canter with minimal effort. Highly effective to leg aids, he is not a slow moving or sluggish horse either. As said before, Ezra is only as hot as the rider wants him to be, but is never mean. Has never bucked, reared, or bolted. A very cuddly and affectionate horse.
Ezra's father, the late Wolkentanz II, Reserve Champion in his performance test with 133.56 points. Champion of Dressage in his 6 year old testing with 143.94 points. Both times he was given a 10 for rideability, which he passed on to his offspring. 25 S level Dressage placings with 7 Firsts, 3 Seconds, and 6 Third places.
Ezra has not shown save for small fun shows this year due to personal finances. Nothing of his own fault. It's difficult to find a horse this lovely both in persona and talent. I absolutely love this horse. Only reason for sale is I don't have any interest in dressage. Email for more information, motivated to sell to make room for new projects.
