2022 Pinto Oldenburg Gelding
Precipitation CF (Palladio x Rainbow) x Canthargo x Deutschmeister
EMH - 17hh
Registry - Oldenburg
Inspection - Westfalen
Location - Alberta Canada
Your next 3 ring superstar! Striker is a stunning and tall Oldenburg gelding with the most pleasant personality. He is quiet and unphased by new places or environments, which I believe will contribute to his success in a showing career.... (read more) He is easy to catch in the field and is eager to have a job to do. This big fella has been worked lightly on the ground and around obstacles through this life. Striker is kind and respectful with extensive age appropriate handling. He will be a very easy start for someone next year. He has NOT been formally started and any work he has had done thus far has been light and age appropriate, mostly for mental stimulation purposes.
Striker loads, bathes, ties and stands for the farrier. He is sound and has always been utd on deworming and farrier. He is good in a herd setting and would benefit from having other horses his age to play with as he grows. He is currently penned with my gelding and they are constantly tearing around and having fun.
Strikers sire, Precipitation CF, is a full sibling to pinto Warmblood stallion Pallido Blu CF. Precipitation was trained to third level dressage and was showing in the 1.20m jumpers and hunters, with scope to spare, before being lost to colic. His lineage includes famous pinto Warmblood stallions Palladio, Samber and Rainbow, all of which have contributed greatly to the pinto Warmblood lineage today and proved to be very successful in sport. Precipitation was known locally for his rideability and quiet nature and was suitable for all levels of riders.
Strikers dam, Cara, was a premium Oldenburg mare who has proven to be a great amateur jumper mount in Ontario. Her lineage includes the highly successful jumper stallion Conthargos, and three ring Oldenburg stallion Deutschmeister. Both stallions have produced many dressage, jumper and eventing horses.
Striker will be best suited to an adult amateur or professional who will take the time to develop him properly given his size. He has the height, mind and talent for either jumping or dressage. We had planned to keep this fella and start him lightly under saddle this winter, but we have decided that he is just so big and feel he would benefit both mentally and physically from some extra time to mature before he is started under saddle. Thus, we have decided to offer him now at a discounted rate before starting him in the spring.
I can help arrange transport and am well versed in cross border requirements. We are heading to New England October 24, 2024 and could possibly offer him a spot on our trailer.
