Cardi B is a truly special horse who has proven himself time and time again in the dressage arena. Currently competing and confidently training at Medium, he is consistently scoring well with established lateral work, expressive paces, and a willing, trainable nature. With his talent, work ethic, and presence, he will easily continue developing toward Advanced in the right program.

Competition Highlights:

• Consistent 68% at Medium when stepping up — now far more established.

• National Youth Championships 2023:

  • 1st & 2nd Elementary

  • 3rd & 4th Medium

  • Always competitive in Open divisions.

• Dressage Queensland Awards 2022:

  • Champion Elementary Young Rider of the Year

  • Reserve Champion Prelim/Novice Young Rider

  • Overall Young Rider of the Year

• Dressage Queensland Young Rider Squad — 2022 & 2023

• 2022 QLD Youth State Championships — Won every class entered.

• Competed and placed in open classes at Willinga Park.

• Selected as a demo horse for Mastery of the Horse at Outback Spectacular — receiving countless compliments and enquiries.

Cardi consistently scores 8s and 9s for his movement and expression. Judges love him — and so will his next rider.

Training Notes

• Laterals established and expressive

• Medium work solid

• Flying changes are correct and reliable when he is soft, straight, and balanced. If rushed or not properly prepared, they can be hit-or-miss — nothing dramatic, simply reflects a horse that likes a thoughtful set-up. In regular work, they continue improving fast.

Temperament & Suitability

Cardi is an absolute dream to campaign. He thrives in big atmospheres, handles pressure beautifully, and has been exposed to a wide variety of environments.
Very easy to float, shoe, clip, prep, and take out.

Would suit:

• Serious junior or young rider

• Ambitious amateur

• Competitive dressage home wanting a horse with presence and talent

Soundness, Management & Openness

• Full set of X-rays available to genuine buyers.

• Wind sucker — this is fully disclosed. It has zero impact on his health, condition, or performance. The only management is that he wears a collar in the paddock, and that is the only difference between him and any other horse.

• Holds weight well, no ulcers, no maintenance required.

Reason for Sale & Recent Competition Gap

He has not been competed since early 2024 solely due to my circumstances — a difficult year personally, combined with my truck being off the road for most of it. Upon returning to work and shows, I realised I want to pursue show jumping again.
This is no reflection on him — he is sound, in work, and ready to step straight back into the dressage ring.

Price: $70,000

Only available to the very best of homes.
