Darling Fiona (b. 2005, 16 hh) FOR SALE*

Darling Fiona is a five-year old Irish Draught Sport Horse (RID x TB) out of champion Irish Draught and Thoroughbred bloodlines (See horses page for more info). A stunning bay with no white markings, she is forward and light to ride, smart and brave, and a very easy keeper.

Fiona is 16.1 hh but will continue growing. Her temperament rates a "4" on a scale of "1" to "10" with "1" being bombproof and "10" being hold on. She is schooling 1st level dressage and has a particularly easy time with the lateral work. She has a good idea of half-pass in trot and is just beginning to learn it in canter. Her gaits are naturally rhythmic and correct, but easy to ride, and her canter is very balanced and adjustable. She has been started over fences, and shows great potential there as well. She is scopey, confident, and careful, and stays straight and quiet before and after the jump. She has schooled at a cross-country course and does not hesitate to tackle big, solid fences. She loves trails, and loves a good gallop, but comes back easily. She's soft in the mouth and good off your leg; a real pleasure to ride and handle.

Fiona has been in a number of schooling and recognized dressage shows, entered in both Open and Amateur classes. She typically scores in the high 60s to low 70s in training level (including TL 4 qualifying at recognized shows) and made her 1st level debut with a 66% in Open competition at a schooling dressage show. She doesn’t require lunging and not much warm-up and is typically calm and quiet throughout the whole show weekend. A real pleasure to ride and show.

Video is available here. Just look for all the clips featuring Fiona. You can even see her being ridden by a 10-year-old girl during a lesson.
