How big is he? What Section?
We had a Section B (12.2 hh). He taught my daughter to ride. He was a great little chap with lots of character and a real alrounder.
He did dressage, showing, showjumping and cross country. He went alone and in company, and had the brains not to push her harder than she could handle.
He was her best friend for many years, and when she outgrew him he bacame a companion to my cob and did a fine job until the big pasture in the sky called him.
Have fun with your new friend for many many years!
