Cruz is a Connemara/Highland cross cob gelding, having a very genuine, sensitive nature. He's a good doer, never been sick or sorry, having an excellent weight bearing capacity with plenty of bone. He is well mannered, both in and out of the stable , well schooled, nicely behaved to lead, groom, comes to call and good with his feet. He is schooled in a Myler hanging cheek snaffle and hacks out in a Dutch gag (on second ring) for extra brakes. He never bronks, bucks, rears or kicks. Presently stabled at large livery yard, therefore used to agricultural machinery and dogs. Currently stabled at night and turned out during the day. Up to recently has been schooled on a weekly basis and hacked out regularly. Cruz on the whole is a well behaved horse but occasionally can be a bit cheeky if he thinks he can get out of work, therefore not suited to a total novice. Will hack out alone (sometimes a bit spooky, but fine if reassured) or with company, not minding going either first or last, with both mares and geldings. We have owned Cruz for the last 2 years and he has been a mother/daughter share. The only reason he is now up for sale as both myself and 9 year old daughter are novices and ended up getting a smaller pony for her, so consequently he's not getting the amount of work he needs as I work full time. Vaccinations, back and teeth are up to date. Comes with a complete wardrobe of rugs, fleeces including quality leather Black Country GP Event saddle. This is one of the most heartbreaking decisions of my life as Cruz has been my baby for the last 2 years, so no time wasters or dealers. Genuine enquirers only. Must go to a knowledgeable 5* home only
