Digger has been sold
Digger was a star on the track, he was a dearly loved stable favourite and since retiring is loving life in the slow lane! He used all his fast up on the racetrack!
- Digger is kind and easy going. He is a gentlemen to handle in all aspects.
- Basic flatwork established- he can produce some beautiful work on the flat.
- He can canter but this is not yet established. He has a naturally high head carriage on a loose rein, when working in a frame we think he would produce a beautiful walk/trot dressage test!
- Digger would be an ideal ‘Mums’ horse. Doesn’t need riding all the time, not spooky, gives anything a go and is happy to ride beside the smaller ponies.
- Groundwork established and good to handle in all aspects.
- Teeth, trimming and worming up to date.
- Paddocks alone or with a friend, behind a single tape. Rugs on and off in the paddock unrestrained.
- Currently barefoot with no issues and good feet.
- He absolutely LOVES a bum scratch and will not be sold to anyone who isn’t willing to do this for him
- Diggers previous trainers would love to keep track of him and his journey- he is a very special horse to them!
- A beautiful kind hearted horse that has so much to offer someone!
- Although Digger is kind and willing he is still green so an experienced rider is essential.
