Ultimate 1.30m showjumper

El Diablo

A horse that needs no introduction within the South Australian showjumping scene.

Ernie is a 14yo, 16hh Warmblood gelding with an outstanding record and an even more outstanding heart. A competitive, brave and exceptionally careful jumper, he combines performance with personality making him as much a partner as he is competitive.

Ernie has:

• Competed successfully at Agricultural Shows, Royal Shows, State Championships, and Australian Championships

• Performed consistently up to 1.40m level

• Regularly come home in the ribbons

Some performances include:

• 2024 JR Balharry SA senior horse of the year

• 1st Mini Prix final SA State championships April 2025

• 4th Riders choice 1.35m Festival of Showjumping June 2025

• 2nd, 5th & 6th placing Adelaide Royal section 2 September 2025

Ernie is not only talented but full of character:

• Brave, sharp, and competitive on course

• Lovely to ride on the flat

• Enjoys beach rides, bareback rides, and life outside the arena

• Great lead pony, reliable and generous

• Excellent to travel, shoe, and catch

Ernie is a forward-thinking horse who can get strong on course, so he is best suited to:

• A confident junior, young rider, or amateur

• Someone with access to regular coaching

• A rider looking to be competitive and continue progressing at height

This is an incredibly difficult sale, and one that has not been made lightly.

Finding him the right home is non-negotiable.

He deserves a rider who will value him, continue his journey, and love him as much as I do.
