Horse Description
This 3rd level dressage gelding just acquired the highly coveted SPORT predicate, for his consistently high scores in 3rd level dressage! He is one of the SPECIAL finds we acquired on our trip to the Netherlands! I personally rode this LONG haired dreamboat on the beach, and in the crashing surf--- wow---- he looks like he just walked out of a dream...REALLY!!!
Val is very well ridden under saddle and experienced pulling a carriage in single, pairs and in 4 in hands. We LOVE his rocking horse easy canter, and his high stepping balanced trot! In 3rd level dressage competition, he consistently scores above 65%:).
...BIG, BRAVE, HANDSOME, he wowed us with his incredible dressage movement! AND we rode AND drove Val all over the place, while we were in Holland.... he has substantial training already, both under saddle and being driven! He even has considerable experience out on the trail and in traffic, AND as you can see,---at the beach! We think this boy has a great future ahead of him. It is obvious that he enjoys dressage, and he is GOOD at it. He has a very sweet character and is ALWAYS willing to work. He is ready to take someone to the TOP in dressage, or make you VERY happy as a wonderful pleasure horse. He really enjoys relaxing trail rides, as we took him on one, and long grooming sessions---- which you should be prepared for---since his mane extends to his knees!!!
He is very comfortable to sit, and has forward and smooth gaits. Val has a recent vet report. AND he is one of only a rare few that have acquired the highly coveted SPORT predicate, which is PROOF he is scoring well, under numerous judges, in numerous settings, in upper level dressage!
This jet-black horse is kind, giving, non-spooky, and he WANTS to please, and is not lazy.
He has a FANTASTIC gaits, and shows DEFINITE potential for FEI levels. You will enjoy his fabulous disposition.

He is already scoring well as a competitive dressage horse, but he also loves to go on trail rides/hacks and goes in the water easily. We like his wonderful training attitude, as he is not a lazy friesian, yet not a spooky one either. He is eager to please, and has a quiet and easy attitude. He is very easy to handle, both under saddle and pulling a carriage. Val is ready for his new forever home, and will make some lucky rider VERY happy.
We are VERY proud to offer this reasonably priced, JET BLACK, long haired SWEET boy....
