Last ridden August 2024 with trainer for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately Im no longer riding so didnt continue with training. She has a very good understanding of ground work although you will need to be relatively experienced and have a good understanding of what needs to done to help her through gaps in her training, so no she is not jump on go ready.Great for farrier, vet, rugging, grooming, washing but is a nervous floater due to lack of experience.Ive had Lil with me for 4 years and she is going to waste. She is in great paddock condition, no health issues but she is a mild windsucker, does have some minimal scaring on her back legs. Dental work done in Aug 2025 by vet along with vaccination.

ID: 4186

$0.00

  • Discipline:Showjumping
  • Gender:Horse
  • Height:16h "
  • Age:8

Glenara Oaks Bring It On (Bring It) is a brilliant showjumper, incredibly athletic, bold, and super careful. We've produced her over the last couple of years and now and she's really starting to step up. She has a lovely technique over the fence. She's a really sweet mare, always loves a cuddle, really good to shoe, travel, and to get her teeth done.Bring It is confident jumping around 1.20-1.25m and we've competed a few 1.30m classes recently on her in the Rising Stars at Tamworth World Cup Show, and Qld Country Titles. She's got amazing potential and scope to go higher. She's a very competitive horse and has placed in quite a few classes over the years, coming 1st at the Festival Of Showjumping 5/6 year class last year, placed at Tamworth 2024 and this year, she jumped the best she's jumped at Maryborough Country State Titles, she's a clever mare. She's very good at shows, we've taken her to a few ag shows as well and nothing bothers her, she ties up to the truck all day at a show. Bring It's flat work is nice, she's soft in the mouth. She's happy in a herd or by herself.Bring It is a very easy going mare, she loves creating a bond with you so that you can jump as a team. She would suit an intermediate rider that's already out and competing and would like to step up in heights, but we'd love her to go into a professional stable to see how far she can go. she's a lovely horse and has some of the best blood lines in the world, her sire Big Star is one of the World's top jumping horses, retiring after two Olympic Gold Medals https://eis-breeding.com.au/stallions/big-star-frozen-semen-australia/ and her Dam, Glenara KG Cinderella is very well bred out of Cristalline, being one of the top mounts in the US Jumping Athlete Adrienne Sternlicht since 2016 and her Dams sire, Conquistador was the only stallion with two offspring among the 30 best horses at the 2018 World Equestrian Games in Tryon, NC https://www.superiorequinesires.com/conquistador/This is a very sad sale, s...

16.1hh | 8yo | OTT Grey GeldingAdvertising on behalf of a friend.Moon has successfully competed at Level 3 and Preliminary Dressage Days, and has been out to local shows, freshmans, clinics, navigation rides, adult riders, and pony club events. Hes excellent out on trails and has been cross country schooling a handful of times, always taking new and busy environments in his stride.Moon had one race start (under the name Nalaad) and is eligible for OTT classes. He recently competed at the OTT Carnival in Preliminary Dressage, scoring over 60% in both tests.Moon has ample potential and presence, and with the right rider, he will excel. Hes not the type to get hot or anxious, but he can have the odd moment. When hes in work and handled by someone confident, its not an issue. Therefore, hes best suited to a confident and experienced rider.Moon has the versatility and attitude to succeed in a range of disciplines. He has a compact, athletic build and is balanced and sure-footed. While his recent jumping exposure has been limited, he shows natural ability and would progress quickly with more consistency. Hes also schooled laterals and flying changes, showing lots of potential in both the dressage and show ring. Easy to catch, float, shoe (hot or cold), wash, clip, and handle Good doer - thrives on grass hay and one hard feed a day No soundness issues or injuries (has received top care over the years) Sensible around dogs, motorbikes, cars, trucks, and wildlifeNote: Moon has been seen to windsuck. Hes been scoped, maintains weight extremely well, and it does not affect his health. Doesnt wear a collar.Moon is a genuinely special horse, and this is a very hard sale for his rider. Due to medical circumstances, she can no longer bring on a young performance horse and wants to see him go to the right home. Ive had the pleasure of riding him over the past couple of years, and will be sad to see him go.Serious enquiries only, please.Cottles Bridge, VIC$10,000 (price likely to in...
