Her breeding is TB/Saddlebred. This horse is completely work minded. She will do what is asked of her, ride away from her pasture buddies, and not even call to them.
She was trained using natural horsemanship techniques and then brought into the world of dressage. She was a very successful dressage show horse. She went to college with her former owner and did some jumping as well and can jump high. She enjoys jumping.
She has been trail ridden a lot also, and is not spooky, but will look hard at things. When she spooks it is in place, so it's not a big deal. She is ridden by my 11 year old. She got her when she was 10. Her former owner even worked cattle on her. She has really done it all. She rides beautifully in the arena or your yard (which is all I have). She is completely focused on her rider, even if you're 10, which is great. She was ridden and trained by one girl for 8 years before we got her. She is an amazing horse, but needs more regular work. We don't ride that much and she needs to be used more. She can take any youth rider to the next level.
My daughters trainer has ridden her and loves her. She would be happy to be a reference also, and is going to help us sell her. I am open to some offers, or even partial trades. I am pretty firm on the price. She is worth much more than this. A dressage trainer she worked with priced her at $10,000. I just want to get her sold to someone that will use her.
Thanks for looking! I will add pictures tomorrow.

You will not be disappointed if you have a child that wants to show, or you as an adult. She is a magnificent horse.
