OLYMPUS S.F. 2012 Registered Friesian Gelding (approx. 16.2hh)

“Ollie” is the sweetest boy in the barn! He is truly the “in your pocket” type of horse, he loves to be loved and is a barn favorite. He will stand on crossties for hours being brushed, braided, and pet. He is an angel in the barn and will come when called in the field (though, he usually sees us coming and waits at the gate). Ollie is barefoot and requires no maintenance.... (read more) He stands, clips, trailers, etc. with no issue.

Ollie has a background in dressage but also loves to jump. He has competed in dressage shows (training level) and hunter paces. However, Ollie is not a beginner horse and is being sold as a project with tons of potential. He would provide an incredible opportunity for an advanced rider with an interest in dressage who can put in the time to develop a relationship with him and bring him along. He lacks confidence and needs to build a trusting relationship with his rider. He requires consistency and thrives in a program. Under saddle, Ollie tends to be a push ride, but he has an occasional spook and would benefit from a confident rider with a solid seat.

This horse is deeply loved, but he would be better suited in a home with a more advanced rider, and someone who can give him the time he requires. I will be picky about where he ends up and I will require references.

Located in Easton, CT.
