Offered for your consideration is Espri, a top-quality young Hanoverian gelding with the bloodlines, brain, and athletic ability to be a true horse of a lifetime. Destined for the upper levels, he presents a rare opportunity for a discerning amateur or professional to develop a future star for the dressage, eventing, or hunter/jumper arenas.
Espri boasts a pedigree packed with proven performance lines. He is by the Elite Hanoverian stallion Sir Wanabi (Santorini/Lortzing), a sire known for producing talented, rideable offspring. His dam is the elegant black KWPN mare, Esprentina NPF (Sir Oldenburg/Florestan), who has already produced a champion. Espri’s half-sister (by Dauphin) was named Champion Hanoverian Filly in 2019, a testament to the quality of this maternal line.
Professionally and thoughtfully started, Espri has been a delight to develop. His training has been focused on creating a solid and correct foundation for a long and successful career.
• Dressage: Currently schooling Training Level, demonstrating three correct and comfortable gaits. His canter is a dream to sit, and he shows a natural ability for balance and self-carriage. He has attended a combined test at Twin Rivers, handling the show environment with maturity.
• Jumping: Started over fences, Espri displays a fantastic natural form, a brave attitude, and tremendous scope. He is willing and clever, showing all the promise of a top-tier hunter or event horse.
• Exposure: Espri has been off-property to venues like the Los Angeles Equestrian Center (LAEC) to gain exposure to the horse show atmosphere, proving to be sensible and focused.

What truly sets Espri apart is his exceptional mind and personality. He is one of the easiest and most rewarding young horses we have had the pleasure of working with. Inquisitive, intelligent, and incredibly willing, he loves to learn and forms a genuine partnership with his rider. His forgiving nature and goofy, charming personality make him a barn favorite.

This special young horse has a solid foundation in place for you to produce a top competitor. He has the talent for a professional, the temperament for an amateur, and the heart of a champion.
