Horse Description
BIG, BRAVE, HANDSOME, STER Gelding, Reltje is the gelding everyone is looking for. A safe, sane, sound older friesian with POINTS in M level (2nd level) dressage. Which means this STER gelding has moved up the levels, from Training, First, and now Second Level, and he currently has 7 points in M level competition. In Europe, horses can ONLY achieve points at a certain level, IF they are actually performing the maneuvers required of that level, and then the horse can ONLY move up to the next level, when they have more than 10 points. You can be assured Reltje is truly performing at a solid second level, due to his outstanding show record!
Anyone can SAY their horse is 2nd level, Reltje has proven it
He has a great future ahead of him. He enjoys dressage and is GOOD at it, competing against warmbloods and consistently coming out on top. He has a very sweet character and is ALWAYS willing to work.
Now he is ready to take someone to the TOP in dressage in the US. Reltje also enjoys relaxing trail rides, and he loves to have his mane washed and braided. He is very comfortable to sit, and has forward and smooth gaits. Reltje has a recent pre-purchase and CLEAN X-rays taken on Dec 16, 2004. When Reltje became STER, the Dutch Judges ranked his trot a resounding "8". This jetblack horse is kind, giving, and non-spooky.
Reltje shows potential for FEI level dressage. He measures 16.2 hands ...this is a TALL boy! Reltje has a fabulous disposition, and can be ridden by all levels of riders. Check out his photos of being ridden in the sea!! While Reltje IS a winning competitive dressage horse, he is equally comfortable out on the trails. We like Reltje's wonderful training attitude as he is always in the mood to go for a ride.
Reltje is one of the nicest friesian dressage STER geldings on the market today. Check out the extension on this boy!!!
