A heart breaking post for me to write, so please no timewasters, I’ve been putting this off for a long time!

Offering my beautiful bamboo to a new 🏡 for dressage/flatwork/hacking

16hh 5 year old gelding by crowns wonder pearl
The most beautiful boy inside and out 💛
Has lovely flatwork, very soft in the hand and a very quick learner. A dream horse.

This years achievements include -

• Multiple dressage scores of 68%+

• 🏆 Winner of his young horse qualifier with 74.4% and 69%

• 🥉 at his first national competition with 83% in a Novice - medium freestyle to music 🎵

Good to clip, shoe, box, lives in or out, gets on with anyone, hacks alone or in company (can be a little spooky on his own but not stupid) travels like a dream, great to handle, super around kids

Unfortunately bamboo has mild arthritic changes in the lower hock, this should not affect his career.. but is very much reflected in his price.. I have decided as he means so much to me it would potentially give him more longevity as a ridden horse to solely compete in dressage. This isn’t something I want to do anymore unfortunately ☹️ he is also very very good at it!

He has been out of proper work since July as I’ve been out jumping every weekend, but he is the type you can just hop straight on and ride off. He doesn’t need riding every day.

Only offering on the off chance someone out there is dreaming about him as it’s a shame to see him standing in the stable doing nothing.

7k Ono - no stupid offers - he would be a 20k horse with perfect X-rays!
