Rivers Ripley is a 9yo warmblood gelding  who has just started his dressage career with his first competition completed at Preliminary level in June 2024.

His sire is a warmblood  of holstein jumping lines with a superb temperment and sound conformation who is proven to produce well build, sound, ridable performance horses.  Ripley's dam is a warmblood mare of Holsteiner x thoroughbred breeding and is a  full sister to a Grand Prix dressage horse in Queensland.

Ripley was started later undersaddle as a 6yo and mostly ridden out on trail for the first 2 years under saddle.  He has only begun dressage and arena training in the past 12 months.

Ripley is a delight to handle and work with. Easy to catch, wash, shoe, rug, tie up and float.  He is very comfortable living with a small herd or coming into the stable/yard for training and event preparation.

He is now ready to find his performance home and due to his size and forward moving manner we feel he would most suit confident novice and upward level rider wanting a talented well mannered horse to partner for dressage, showjumping or eventing and trail riding.

Ripley recently attending his first dressage competition and took it all in his stride competing both indoor and outside.
