Horse Details

Very sad sale of a much loved horse through no fault of his own only due to me starting University in September.
Foggy is an ex racehorse who retired sound after 5 races, originally owned and raced by the Queen. He has been off the track for around 3 years now and has proved to be a brilliant allrounder who will try anything you throw at him – so genuine and always wants to please! He has competed in low level dressage with me and has been to Somerford and hunted with a previous owner.
Foggy is a naturally forward going ride who has 3 well established paces. He really enjoys his schooling and keeping his brain busy with exercises and lateral work, being really soft and light on your aids.
He also enjoys hacking, alone or in company, never getting strong. I have taken him out for miles by himself, passing heavy traffic, lorries, motorways, streams, farm animals, etc and nothing ever phases him as long as you are confident yourself. He gets a lot of his confidence from his rider so if you are unsure he will be too, however, he will do anything, not batting an eye, if he knows you’re sure. He has never bucked, reared, bolted with me and is a such an enjoyable ride.
I have popped him over jumps in the school and out hacking. Not being the most confident jumping myself, he is more developed in his schooling over his jumping but again isn’t strong or fizzy and will listen to your aids.
He is such a character and just wants to please, putting up with me riding him bareback and starting to teach him to ride bridle-less.
Foggy will be most suited to a confident teenager or small adult who wants to do low level competitions or just to have a bit of fun. I feel completely safe with him but he is not a novice ride. He is also ROR eligible.
Although he is good in his stable, he is happiest when he is turned out, with him currently out 24/7 in the summer.
No vices, no injuries. Good to do in all ways however needs sedation if clipping his stomach.
It truly is a very sad sale and wouldn’t be selling him if I didn’t have to. Home over price is the most important thing.
up to date on vaccines, physio, farrier and teeth.
