A truly genuine, much-loved mare, offered for sale only due to her owner giving up horses. This is a very sad sale of a real heart horse, and she is looking for a kind, long-term home where she will be equally cherished.
Standing at 16.1hh, this elegant black Hanoverian combines beautiful, expressive movement with a kind and uncomplicated temperament. She has a lovely presence while remaining sensible and rideable, making her an ideal candidate for a mother/daughter share or a confident amateur rider.
“Apple” would be perfectly suited to a happy hacking and riding club lifestyle, with the ability to enjoy some low-level dressage alongside. She is a fantastic hack – both alone and in company – happily keeping up with others when asked or relaxing on a loose rein. She is sensible in traffic and takes new environments in her stride, giving her riders confidence.
She has competed at British Dressage and is well-mannered when away from home, making her a lovely option for someone wanting to get out and enjoy clinics, local shows, and unaffiliated or grassroots dressage without pressure.
Apple is easy to handle in all respects, whether in or out of the stable, and has a kind, affectionate nature that makes her a pleasure to have on the yard. She is the sort of mare you can build a genuine partnership with.
