Torridon Callisto

Dressage Schoolmaster – beautifully natured and reliable

$8,000

Description

Due to a change in my circumstances, I’ve made the difficult decision to find a new home for my beautiful boy, Callisto.
I bought him 3.5 years ago as a safe, and well-educated flat work/trail mount. He is very safe and reliable in the arena and is happy going out on the trails on his own or in company.
He previously competed medium and trained advanced. My riding skills do not match this level, but my daughter rides him weekly and they happily do flying changes and the higher movements together. She has also done some low level jumping with him. He doesn’t get hot and does whatever she asks of him, but he is not a natural jumper so more suited to a dressage rider.
The ideal rider for Cally is someone who can enjoy his high level of training but not push him at the higher levels at this stage in his life. Cally is an honest horse and tries hard to please his rider but is not suitable for a beginner as he could get tense (although not misbehave) if he isn’t given clear instructions. Likewise, he will be happier with a calm, confident rider.
Cally is beautifully natured - he loves a brush, has no issues being tied up, stands well for the farrier and is excellent to handle in general. He self-loads on the float and travels well, both alone and with other horses.
He’s very hardy and has never had any health or soundness issues. He’s up to date with teeth, farrier etc.
His price is firm at $8k. His PDS Carl Hester saddle can be sold with him for an extra $1500.
Cally will only be sold to the very best of homes and is only available for viewing on the weekend.
