The Forward Ride

Good motor, even head. This horse wants to go, and mostly goes about it in an uncomplicated way. Athletic without the edge, forward without the drama. The kind of horse that makes ambitious goals feel possible without making every ride an event.

About this horse

Dressage and driving prospect with a recent under-saddle start, this 9-year-old black purebred Friesian mare was previously used as a broodmare and began ridden work only last year. The listing states she has worked in a ring twice weekly for six months and is considered fairly solid there, while still needing substantially more exposure and partnership-building before she is ready to trail ride independently. She is described as affectionate, willing, highly sensitive, and very intelligent, with a bold but submissive disposition and an evident preference for groundwork and connection-based handling. Her current profile is that of a late-starting but capable project for an experienced person who values groundwork and gradual development.
