I have brought her along myself for the past year, lightly hunting her approx 7 times in the field. Thereafter, when I was tied up with work, a whip-in for the Limerick Harriers took her on, due to her brave attitude over banks and fly fences. She has also been ridden by a past whip-in to the Co. Limerick Foxhounds. She will take on any obstacle, including wire, cattle grids, and post and rail fencing.
She has competed in 3 Novice Hunter Trials (leading pairs on her first outing), and has been schooled over some Open cross country jumps in several different equestrian centres, including Clonshire. Taken part in various Fun Rides, including Limerick Lough Gur Ride, and Scartten Fun Ride (Feb 2014).
While predominantly I.D breeding, when she is hunting fit she is quite light in herself and very quick over the ground. Currently fit and ready to go.
She is good to clip, shoe, load, hack out alone or in company. (I have used her on hacks up the Ballyhoura Mountains). She is up to date on vaccinations and worming. Good-doer and does not need much more than good hay whilst hunting.
She has also been schooled over 90cm showjumps under saddle. She freejumps 120cm at home, with a 4 foot spread. This mare jumps point to point fences from a trot, with feet to spare. She may be most suitable for someone looking for a young potential eventer, although her flatwork will need a little work as I have not had the time to bring her on to the level I would like.
More photos and videos can be arranged via email, if you are interested.
