Bridl note
"We are actively looking for a proven 1.45m show jumping horse for a junior rider competing in Europe. The ideal horse should be between 8 and 12 years old, with an established competition record at 1.45m. Rideability and reliability are particularly important. The horse should be suitable for a junior rider, with a consistent jumping attitude, good scope and enough experience to compete confidently at this level. We would especially welcome horses that have previously been ridden and competed by female riders, although this is a preference rather than a strict requirement. The budget is €150,000–€200,000, and we are open to suitable horses located throughout Europe."
