Nova is a 12 year old stunning TWH Mare. She stands 15.2hh, chestnut with flaxen mane and tail. She has done it all! Packed in the mountains, hobbles, high-lines, been on cattle drives, LOVE water, brave in any terrain, will lead or follow. I've ponied her and she has ponied other horses. She has been around dogs, motorcycles, ATV's, Side-by's, cars (ridden on roads). Nova loves attention and wants to be someone's Number 1. She loves to go, ground covering walk, nice smooth gait, a faster gait, and rocking horse canter. She is happy to go out alone or in a group. We took her to the BCH Winery Ride, riding and standing tied with hundreds of other people and she was a rock star. Beginners have ridden her on the trail with ease but I would prefer her to go to a more experienced rider who will use her a lot. She has been shown Working Equitation, opens and closes gates, side passes, backs, forehand turns, haunch turns, she even likes to jump! Easy-keeper and loves to be with other horses. She has had consistent body work, UTD on shots and teeth. She is currently barefoot and does great on the trail barefoot or booted. Bathes and stands great for Farrier. Nova can get a little worried in new places and just needs a gentle leader. She responds wonderfully to calm reassurance, not a heavy hand. This horse will go to the ends of the earth for you! She has been my husband horse and he just isn't riding enough to justify keeping her. We will be very sad to see her go and will require "First right to refusal".
