Enthusiastic all-round/jumping pony (New forest)

Ziga’s Amado
(Hoppenhofs’Hero x Hatricia’s Ziga’s)

Stable name: Hero

Hero is a mega enthusiastic, willing, and eager-to-learn 15-year-old gelding who wants to do everything for you under saddle. It doesn't matter if it's a regular arena obstacle or a strange log in the forest. He certainly doesn't lack enthusiasm and spirit. However, this does mean he needs a confident/experienced rider.

In terms of dressage, he knows the basics well. He has competed in L1 tests, but in training, he also shows some higher-level exercises.

On trail rides, he can go both alone and in a group. Hero is not easily spooked. He is a pony that loves water and therefore enjoys walking through it, whether it's a large puddle or the sea.

With his previous owner (5/6 years ago), he jumped courses of 1.10/1.20 m, but due to the current rider's interests, he hasn't been out to competitions much lately. He is currently being ridden recreationally (jumping, dressage, and cross-country). He has done cross-country and jumping competitions, but the rider's preference was jumping on their own initiative. He has been to the De Vijfsprong cross-country course several times and performs fantastically there.

The reason for sale is that the rider is going to study in Velp and will therefore no longer have time to care for a horse. It is with a heavy heart that she says goodbye to this top pony after 5.5 years. Hero is looking for a rider who wants to get to work with him and take on challenges. We are looking for a 5-star home for this sweet pony.
