Description: ‘Blessington blue’ 2010 (he’s 14 this year) 16.1 reg Irish Draught gelding Fitz has been at my livery yard for the last 6months, he is looking for a new home due to a sad change in his owners circumstances. I have handled him since he arrived, he is easy to lead, clip, shoe, catch, wash etc. Currently he shares a field with geldings by day and mares next door, he is quiet and only interested in grazing.He is also happy to be stabled. He absolutely adores his work and tries to please. Fitz is at home out hunting, he has whipped in and ridden as part of the field. He knows his job and enjoys being out for the day. He has been ridden by others on the yard hunting, by men and petite women and he has been an arm chair for the day. To ride he has a mouth as soft as butter and is more kick than pull. His current owner is a very novice rider, fitz has in the past napped with him. (It’s nothing nasty, stops and considers turning back, give him a kick and he gets on with it) When in regular work and with a more confident approach this has not occurred since Fitz has lovely basic flat work we feel he would be suitable for showing or dressage. Show jumping he isn’t a world beater but tries his heart out, happily schooling around 80/90cm courses. He doesn’t look at any fillers and rides well to a fence. Xc & hunting he comes into his own and his jump is far more open and bold. He will hack alone and in company, in open spaces and on main roads. He is used to farm machinery and is not reactive to quad bikes etc. I have plenty of videos. Fitz would suit a confident teen or adult who wants to get out and about regularly and have some fun. He is not suitable for a novice he could potentially take advantage of their lack of ability. This lovely boy has not been hammered he’s clean limbed and well looked after. He’s up to date with vaccination’s and physio. No issues or veterinary history. Open to any vetting. Please call anytime with any questions happy to discuss.
