Notes:

Stunning upper level prospect!

Opie has 3 lovely gaits and is a 10 plus mover. He is brave over fillers and fences and has xc schooled through water, ditches and small banks. He is started over low level fences, but has primarily been working on dressage.

He has been to 2 local dressage shows showing intro and training level where he was very competitive.

Opie is a powerful horse and can be very quirky under saddle so does require a confident/professional rider. He would do best in a full training program. I am working a lot of hours so do not have the time to keep him in full work and give him the program he needs.

He hacks out down the road with friends and will lead the group. He can buck and has reared 2 times under saddle, but I believe in a consistent program would thrive. He is super friendly/playful in the field with other horses and is very sweet to deal with on the ground for grooming, clipping and bathing.

He spent 2 years from 4-6 out in a field so has low wear and tear on his joints/body- but does need miles with a professional rider.

He has the presence and movement for the upper levels in dressage/eventing/jumpers/hunters just needs to find the right person to take him to that level.
