This week's Horse Spotlight is on Turtle Dove, one of the many horses for sale at Equinens. She is a black Thoroughbred X Dales Pony cross, and stands at 15.1hh. She is 10 years old and excels at everything she tries.
This mare was started in the hunter ring, and won almost every class she entered. From there she moved to 3' jumpers, and by the end of the year was placing at the top of each class again! She continued in the hunter/jumper shows until the age of 7, when her owners entered her into heavy dressage training. She was introduced to cross-country jumping and begun eventing.
Turtle Dove is lovely under saddle! Though her stride is short, she moves with fairly smooth gaits and looks elegant from the ground. She is couragous and sensible. She has a tremendous amount of intelligence and is very sure-footed. She loves to go on trails and has lots of energy. She can jump up to 3'9 and easily changes her lead.
This lovely horse has no vices and would be great for a rider in any English discipline. Turtle Dove needs a loving home!
