Total Mark Overall comment
8.175 GOLD a lovely yearling with nice harmonious conformation and a very nice trot, uphill and expressive. The walk was sometimes a bit tense and the canter is currently a bit tricky for him as he is a bit bum high which is affecting the balance. As a result he was not overly keen to show his best canter, but this will develop over time. all in all he is a lovely example of a native pony to make a great ridden partner in the future, and the video shows a lovely presentation.
