Looking for your next fox hunter or all around fun competition horse? Introducing Beauty: 3 year old Friesian/Percheron cross. 16h. Beauty is that rare combination of responsive but not reactive. Uphill, balanced with wonderful rhythm. She’s young but has a very mature and calm personality. Will be the leader on traills. Brave and quiet. Started jumping and has done evrything I’ve asked her: banks ditches, water. Has started hunting and will go up front or in the back. First (so far flat open country with few jumps), second, or third flight. Very clever and sweet girl. A lot of fun to ride. She’s something special. Mid-low fives starting with a three. Zuni, Va. Gallop is comfortable and very controllable. Up and down hills and hard terrain. Bravely jumps streams in a ditch at the bottom of a ravine better than some of the older horses. Jumps behind another horse respectfully. She’s figured out what those hound things do. - Brave, careful, willing and forgiving. - Very comfortable and balanced gaits. Big walk and trot. Canter is keeping up with the TB’s. Always feels safe in bad footing and downhill. A plus for hunt horses. - Will say again: responsive but not reactive. Moves off leg easy, but you can flop around a bit. This quality makes her so fun and easy to ride. - very clever and brave jumper. She’s green, but give her a little support and she’s on it. Will take a joke. - Waits until the horse in front of her starts to go. When that horse starts to slow down (even dead stop from a gallop), she slows down. Great stop on the field. - Will stand tied to the trailer for hours. (Had a blowout and it took hours to get a new tire on. She was very mature.) - Great ground manners. Very sweet and loving, but respects your space. - Uncomplicated loader. (Great for me by myself at O-dark thirty in the morning.) - Wonderful for vet and farrier. - Easy keeper. - Broke to drive, but I have not done that with her. - Always waiting by the fence for you to come get her for work or just attention.
