- Description
- 16.1hh 17yo Belgium warmblood. Fantastic breeding Darco X Ramiro. Showjumping school master. Chip loves showjumping and being at shows. Jumped up to newcomers, schooling up to 1m25 and has jumped 1m55 as an individual fence. BS name: Hamilton van Overis. He doesn't get offended by a miss etc. He is fantastic at turns, will turn up to any fence. Low points currently 203points and £389 in winnings, still in discovery due to owners health issues. Chip is fit and sound, has no joint injections/ injuries or health issues. There is no reason why he couldn’t step up and jump foxhunters with an ambitious rider. Chip has done XC and arena eventing schooling up to 1m, jumping everything asked. Chip is a rhythmical horse to ride, not hot. He keeps a nice consistent rhythm in to the fence. Regularly taken out by just myself without help. Will happily jump a newcomers one day and then have a friend on him learning to jump the next. He’s been borrowed by a petite 14yo for a couple of pony club rallies, behaving beautifully, doing rallies both in an arena and an open field. He has also been arena event training with a 14yo jockey giving them lots of confidence. Well schooled on the flat, lovely paces, knows leg yield, shoulder in, flying changes, walk to canters etc. Rides in a beautiful outline. Good to hack, hacks alone and in company. Good in open spaces and on the road. Can be a little spooky but no more than a typical warmblood. Can put in an excited buck when cantering in open spaces if not done it in a while. He is hacked out regularly by my friends who are very much novice (riding school level) riders. Great at beach rides, he loves it! Will happily stand and pose in the sea all day, go for a swim and canter on the sand. Low milage due to my own (owner) health issues. Been owned by myself for the past 10 years. This is a very sad sale, but unfortunately worsening health issues mean I must cut down on my own horses. Good to load, box, shoe, clip etc. Chip loves attention and fuss. Lots of character as was gelded just before I got him. Turns out fine with both mares and geldings. Can sometimes put a buck in when fresh, like most competition horses.
