‘Duffy’ is a 14yr old 16.1hh WbxTb. Duffy has had a slow and correct start to his career with a professional trainer before I purchased him at age 5. Since then, he has had lots of exposure to trail riding including road, bush and beach. Countless training days and adult rider rallies; his limited competition experiences includes dressage days(lvl 3), combine training(lvl 3) and horse trials(lvl 4) all coming home in the placings. This limited competition career is due to no fault of his own and more about his adult rider challenges balancing a busy life and competing.

He is confidently performing at a level 2 dressage currently training level 1 dressage including all lateral movement  training half pass, simple changes and flying changes. His jumping is currently training over approximately 1 metre with potential for more. He is confident jumper that takes you to the fence both in show jumping and cross country.

He has been barefoot for the majority of last 9 years, up to date with all worming, teeth and vaccinations is an experienced traveller, loads and floats well. Duffy is a good doer who is largely grass or hay fed year-round despite his size and breeding.

Due to his size and limited exposure Duffy is for sale to an experienced home and is suitable for a confident rider only. He is a willing horse who likes to work and have a job however he can get anxious from time to time which can make him more horse to handle, hence needing an experienced rider. He does not bolt, buck or rear but can carry tension and get more energy when stressed.

With the right home I believe Duffy will make a great eventer or adult rider horse who would like to do a mix of trail riding and competitions and is for sale only due to me expecting our first baby and no longer having the time for multiple horses.

Duffy has been in and out of work in recent years and always comes back into work with ease. He is currently in light work with a professional rider in preparation for his sale. Duffy sale has the option of including all gear including saddle, bridle and rug wardrobe. $10,000 price is neg home is not. Located in Wandin, Vic.
