PERSONALITY Red is the lankiest and most unco-ordinated horse you have ever seen, but he has a lot of heart and determination, but also alot of will to concentrate and listen to his rider. He realy tries hard and this always shows in his results, being such a big horse has its pros and cons, strides become a big problem because he is always shortening and can sometimes limit his power, though being as big as he is he doesnt need to jump as big, and he is very quick and manages big fences with alot more ease.
HISTORY
Chris Hobday, Jake's Grandfather spotted the horse at a yearling sale in Cheshire and immediatly bought him. Dustin however was not to impressed with the buy and was not willing to put in the time to develop the horse, which Jake was more than willing to take on, Jake spent his savings on buying half the horse off his grandfather, he had a lot of faith that he would be successful. Within a year of being broken, he was jumping massive tracks and could do intermediate eventing. Deciding to focus on showjumping mainly Red blossomed and is continueing to rise through the ranks, and now has just broken through into the Senior ranks and is continually climbing the boards.
DISCIPLINES Showjumping, and Intermediate Eventing.
