Henry is the most handsome & regal Belgian cross (we think QH, Appendix or Warmblood), 16.3h, gelding. He is 16/17 years old and has mainly been a loyal trail mount for one owner for many years, and most recently a family pleasure horse for another family. He is ready to please his next owner!
Henry has demonstrated that he can ride in both Western & English tack. He rides out quietly on trails solo or in company. He’s much more comfortable out on turf & trails. He schools in the arena politely when asked, demonstrating three lovely gaits and such consistency in his rhythm. He is NOT a typical lazy draft type. He has a big canter stride so not for beginners. In the arena, he has a safe motor that we love about him. Henry has a lead change when asked and has some other fancy buttons- he will leg yield and side pass.
Henry doesn’t look his age. He was an adored riding partner who was ridden 5-6 times a week for many years so is in exceptional condition with a beautiful top line. His feet are beautiful and look more like a large Warmblood. He is polite with the farrier, bathes, x-ties and adores grooming. Turns out in a mixed herd. Respects fencing.
This hunk of a horse would be best suited for an educated rider who has soft hands and an educated seat. He’s so willing to partner with his rider!
