ROLO – 148cm | 4yo | BAY GELDING
He is a lovely young horse who always wants to please and genuinely enjoys learning. He has mainly been hacked during his education, so he is still green in the school, but his flatwork is improving all the time and he is proving willing and trainable with every session.
He has three correct paces and is naturally responsive to his rider. He is forward-thinking without being strong and listens well to his rider’s aids. There is plenty still to develop on the flat, but he has all the foundations there for someone to continue producing.
Over a fence, Rolo has an amazing shape. He is willing, careful and showing plenty of scope. He has been to arena hires and the more he does, the more exciting he becomes. I genuinely think there is a lot more to come from him.
Rolo has had all different types of riders from novice- advanced and has been an absolute pleasure for them all.He is a firm yard favourite — everyone wants to ride Rolo, and most of them have! He is the sort of horse people genuinely enjoy getting on, and his kind, willing attitude makes him a pleasure to have around.
Hacking is where he has gained most of his experience. He will hack alone or in company, happily canter across open fields and doesn’t become strong or silly. When riding out in a group he listens to his rider rather than simply following the others.
He really could turn his hoof to so many different jobs. I could see him making a fantastic all-rounder or Pony Club horse, a lovely mother/daughter share, or being produced further for someone wanting a competitive little horse.
Most importantly, Rolo has a genuinely lovely temperament. He is kind, willing, trusting and always wants to do the right thing.
He is still only four years old and green in his schooling, so he needs a knowledgeable rider/home who understands young horses and can continue his education. He isn’t being sold as a finished product — he is a lovely young horse with plenty of potential for someone to put their own stamp on.
Reluctantly offered for sale due to reducing my own horses, unexpected veterinary expenses elsewhere and needing to free up stable space to concentrate on my livery business.
The right home for him is so important. I had hoped to continue producing Rolo myself as I genuinely believe he has a very exciting future ahead of him.
