Are you looking for a Big Mans type horse, willing to take a joke, smooth gaits, lots of ring presence. Thor is a 7 rising 8 yr old, 16. 3hh, Warmblood gelding Sired by Beaulieus Heartbreaker, out of a Mare by Jiggy.
Started late to no fault of his, he was also gelded late, but does NOT act stud like in the barn, and can be turned out with geldings. A puppy dog personality, sweet, kind and innocent.
Starting 1st level training movements in dressage, lateral, extension, collection. Lovely gaits extremely smooth and easy to sit too. More of a kick ride with just enough of an engine where he will carry himself. Truly a fun ride. He tries so hard to do the right thing and picks up new concepts quickly.
He has started jumping but we feel he is stronger suited in dressage. He does have a good degree of sit for his size, and with his smart mind he learns new concepts fast.
He is sound, no major vices like cribbing, weaving, or stall chewing. He did develop a behaviour where he bites his sides from being an intact stallion living by himself for so long, but it resolves itself when he's in a stimulating environment, and being worked.
Video From the summer: He's come further along now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZDvKIqGeNA
