DESCRIPTION (as provided by vendor) Joey has the unique combination of a stunning, powerful movement combined with a calm and relaxed attitude to work (and life). He has well established dressage basics showing a natural self carriage, fluid working and medium paces and relaxed lateral movements. He has started to show some powerful extensions in the trot and canter. He has had a number of non-competitive outings including Pony Club and has been singularly unruffled by the experiences (including participating in troop drill at the trot and canter). He has never made any attempt to buck, rear or bolt - although he sometimes requires strong leg aids to get him moving with activity...... He is a firm favourite with all equine practitioners who have attended him due to his perfect ground manners and calm demeanour. He is excellent to catch, float, shoe, rug and has never offered to bite or kick. He has been ridden by beginners through to intermediate/advanced riders and is always calm and obedient. He would be best suited to an intermediate rider looking to advance through the ranks of either dressage or show-ring as he can be a little too lazy for beginners. Retired from racing in January 2020 due to knee issues he is not suitable for jumping (nor is he at all inclined to expending that much energy...). He has shown no sign of any lameness since retiring and is totally comfortable on hard surfaces as well as sand arenas. He is currently in fat, hairy, paddock condition and ready to get back to work.
