Proudly offered for Sale

Teddy....16 year old 15.3 bay AQHA gelding. He is a good horse for a confident older junior rider or adult amateur with access to a trainer/coach. He is consistent at Training Level with scores in the 60's under a junior rider at SWVADA Schooling Shows and has the ability to do First Level work. He is an excellent teacher. I invite a perspective owner to be my guest here at Hidden Springs Farm for several week-ends to ride him, care for and get to know him. I am willing after that to do a 6 week lease/purchase agreement to assure satisfaction. He doesn't jump. Teddy can be seen at the SWVADA USDF Spring Show May 24th, the SWVADA Harriet Peterson Clinic on June 21st, the Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club USDF Open Show at the Virginia Horse Center August 21st and the SWVADA Schooling Show on October 4th. Please refer to the SWVADA and Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club web sites for event information and directions.
