bay gelding
"Stevie"
is an extremely well-mannered, friendly, curious, intelligent, easy-going, and engaging young gelding who stands about 14.2
hands. Stevie is respectful and well-socialized with other horses, and he is friendly and well-behaved with people. He was
raised here on our farm with dogs at his heels and little children running around, and he has never once had or caused any
problems. He has been accustomed to daily handling since he was a weanling. His personality is playful, sometimes mischievous,
but he loves to work in the ring and is remarkably focused for a young horse. Stevie is absolutely perfect in the trailer,
bathes without fuss, and stands very well for the vet and farrier. His feet and overall health have been carefully monitored
from birth, and his wolf teeth have been done. He was shown in hand at the Lippitt Country Show as both a weanling and a yearling,
where he placed second (in 2006) and first (in 2007) respectively; his behavior in the show ring is generally very good. Stevie
is being trained for dressage by Robyn Cuffey of Photo Finish Farm, and had his first test on October 18, 2009; he performed
extremely well, scoring a 67% and taking a blue ribbon. His second show 3 weeks later brought him two more blue ribbons (in
Prix Caprilli Intro and Canter Training I) and a red ribbon in Level B Training. In 2010, he has been shown at Training Level
1 and 2; at his last show in September 2010, he took the blue ribbon in his Training Level 2 class. One judge remarked that
he is a "clearly talented" horse who simply needs continued training and experience to shine in the show ring. Stevie
needs an experienced rider.
Stevie has
been SOLD to Cindy Doyle of Gorham, ME. We are delighted to pair him with a rider who will focus her full attention on developing
him into the terrific, versatile partner we know he can be.
