- Charlie (Mugs of Champagne)16.3hh TB Gelding aged 7yrs.
Unfortunately readvertised due to no fault of his own! We advertised him before Christmas and had interest but no one came to try him. If they had we are sure he would have gone he's such a lovely boy.
Stunning big horse with a fabulous temperament.
Charlie has previously raced but has had the last 12 months with ourselves chilling out. We brought him back into work at the end of last year then gave him Dec and Jan off. Back into work beginning Feb. He hacks out alone and in company. A very nice boy to have around.
He is starting to work nicely over coloured fences and is proving quite brave. He is now ready to find his new forever home to continue his education.
Charlie is very easy to handle and excellent to shoe. He does weave slightly.
Charlie is a smart, sweet boy with 3 good paces. He's definitely able to jump ( has steeplechased so height no issue just needs to learn how to do it properly )
He has a really good trainable brain, show him once and he will absorb it.
Charlie is a pleasure to handle and good to catch, shoe box etc. He stands well on the lorry when out training both alone and with others.
Charlie hacks both alone and in company and is great with traffic including farm machinery.
Charlie has just started his education in the school he has a soft mouth and a willing brain but like many racehorses he needs to learn how to bend not just go in a straight line. He is forward off your leg but never strong.
He is looking for someone to produce him on further whether that be for eventing, dressage or show jumping. All the potential for grassroots. Easy enough for an experienced rider to produce.
