Horse for sale

Cavalli Vista Coachello
‘Archie’
17.2hh, rising 8-year-old gelding by Centavos.
Archie has been the perfect first hack for my daughter, who has been riding him since she was 14. Archie is a well-known character on the circuit. He has been a consistent, successful Junior Rider horse and would have been stepping up to Young Rider this year. He has plenty of scope and nothing fazes him. He could go all the way with the right rider.
Some of his successes (despite the weather reducing outings last year) include:
2nd Junior Rider Northland GP Nov ‘21
2nd Junior Rider Auckland Show jumping Christmas Show Dec ‘21
3rd Junior Rider Woodhill Jan ‘22
4th 7-Year-Old Style Class North Island Champs Nov ‘22

Archie is a very honest and uncomplicated ride, but you do need a sense of humour to own this horse! On the ground he can resemble an over-grown Labrador puppy with ADHD! Therefore, he will need a competent, experienced home. He is a real personality and loves fuss and attention. (Even my non-horsey husband likes him!) He is happiest when he has a job to do. Despite his best efforts to pretend otherwise, he is an intelligent, quick learner and loves to do the right thing. He is easy to keep and, for his size, doesn’t need ridiculous amounts of feed.
This is an extremely hard advert to write. Archie is a fantastic horse and is only for sale as my daughter is taking a break from riding. He will be sadly missed but will be an amazing horse for another young rider, or an adult wanting a powerful, uncomplicated ride.
