Bay gelding - 10 years old - 16.2

KWPN · Bay · Gelding · 10 years · 16.2hh / 168cm

Exceptional All-Round Horse.

Louis is a striking 16.2hh, 10-year-old bay Warmblood gelding by Carreras VDL, with a wealth of experience and a genuinely kind, easygoing nature. A talented, established horse with great grassroots potential.

Louis has competed successfully up to Novice level in eventing and is currently competing at unaffiliated 100 level. He has recently stepped down a level to allow a teenager to build confidence and gain valuable competition experience.

One of Louis’s greatest qualities is his calm, non-spooky attitude. He is straightforward, genuine and incredibly adaptable, making him suitable for a wide range of riders. He would be an ideal partner for someone looking for a safe, capable horse to enjoy and progress with, while also having the quality and experience to appeal to a professional or competitive home.

Louis is forgiving, willing and always aims to please. He particularly loves his jumping and has plenty of ability and scope. He can be a little more forward to a fence, so we feel he would be best suited to a confident, competent rider who enjoys jumping. He is never nasty — simply keen and enthusiastic when doing what he loves.

He would thrive in a competitive home but is equally happy as a reliable all-rounder or a competent mother-and-daughter share. With his experience, scope and fantastic temperament, Louis has the potential to produce results while remaining an enjoyable horse to ride every day.

Hacking - Louis absolutely loves to hack and is excellent in all types of traffic. He is happy to hack alone or in company and will happily lead or go behind. He is sensible, straightforward and a pleasure to take out.

A genuinely lovely horse with the experience, ability and temperament to be a fantastic partner for his next home.
