Expressions of Interest Invited – Finch Farm Columbus

“Bus” is a 17.2hh, 15-year-old showjumper who has competed to Grand Prix level and is now ready to find a new home for the next phase of his career.

With one owner from breeder to top level, Bus has been carefully and thoughtfully produced. He trained consistently under leading coaches and was never over-campaigned, instead progressing quietly and correctly through the ranks, with Mini Prix and Grand Prix starts during 2024 and 2025 with Australian showjumping young rider superstar Jack Barker.

Bus is a true gentleman - kind, honest and a pleasure to have in the stable. He has a generous nature, a strong work ethic and a beautiful way of going. Although mature in years, he still feels youthful and athletic, riding more like a 10-year-old than his passport would suggest.

Bus has rehabilitated from a soft tissue injury sustained last year and is now best suited to lower-level jumping and ongoing enjoyment in his work. He offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a seasoned, beautifully educated horse with experience, presence and quality. He consistently wins hearts wherever he goes, with impressive looks matched by a kind, noble temperament.

While he dislikes travelling in a truck, Bus is otherwise straightforward and easy to manage - floating, stabling, shoeing and clipping without issue.

Ideal Home
Bus would suit a capable, knowledgeable rider seeking a quality partner for lower-level competition, training, or a step-down role with a horse that has “been there and done that.” He would be ideal for someone who values correct production, experience and character, and who will enjoy him for who he is.

Bus is offered for sale at a negotiable price in the five figures, reflecting his education, experience and unique profile, with priority placed firmly on finding the right home. Expressions of interest are warmly welcomed.
