Additional Comments

5 year old registered Dutch Harness Horse mare standing at 16.2hh. Well broke. Project horse for an advanced rider / trainer. Or would make an excellent broodmare. Large, beautiful, bay with a lot of chrome. Flashy. Big mover but NOT gaited. Super uphill. Rounds nicely in walk and trot but hollows out in the canter and needs some serious work there.

She would make a good Dressage prospect. Or she could be a fox hunter because she is brave and not spooky.... (read more) Maybe someone would take a chance on making her an eventer BUT she may not be fast enough for eventing.

Not recommended for carriage pulling. And not recommended for beginner riders. She is a STRONG horse.

Pros:
- Barefoot even in work with great hooves
- Not a single unexpected vet bill
- Easy keeper and overall healthy and sound
- Gorgeous
- Sweet disposition without any vices (no cribbing)
- Stands nicely for her trims
- Loads in a trailer just fine
- NOT spooky!
- Brave. Smart and sometimes too smart
- Gets along with other horses
- Not overly “mareish”

Cons:
- Willful. Not dangerous. But stubborn at times.
- Throws her head down and threatens to buck when she decides she doesn’t want to work anymore
- Requires consistent work
- Requires experienced riders only
- Itchy skin during the humid summers
