I went to see and ride one more horse today. He is a nice 16.1h, thoroughbred cross gelding, 15 years old. He is mostly white, kind of flea bitten grey. He has been a lesson horse. Has taught beginners, has taken more advanced riders to shows over 2' fences. He can even do lead changes. It has really been a tough choice, but I did choose him today. Since he knows the lesson routine, I thought he'd be the best suited. He will actually be working much less living here with us, he'll feel like he's getting somewhat of a vacation.
Here's a picture of Handsome (Cool Hwip) the horse:
The rider in the picture is the young lady who has been riding and showing him. He has lived in TN and in MD, and gone to shows in both states. They've earned champion and reserved champion several times. He definitely knows his way around a ring filled with jumps!
I plan on picking him up tomorrow.
So, come on ladies! Let's get you riding!
