LOLA - SOLD
My heart is a little torn typing this add but the time has come for Lola to find her new forever home!
15.2hh (unmeasured)
7 yr old
Black/brown STB mare
Race Name: Wanted Lady
Sire: Shadow Play (USA)
Dam: Winging It
DOB: 14/11/2014
Lola is a green broke STB mare. Last raced in 2021 she has come straight from the track to me. After spending some time in the paddock letting down Lola has taken the transition to riding horse like a natural.
She has shown no nasty behaviour, no dirt and has an extremely willing nature with a very smart mind.
Established in walk and trot and currently picking up the canter very naturally although she is still a little unbalanced in the arena, more so to the right rein.
Lola has been exposed to arena work, jumping, trail riding both solo and with company and has been on an outing to pony club. She has shown a very natural ability with everything I’ve thrown at her and picks everything up extremely quickly!
Lola would excel in any chosen discipline! She has shown true versatility and could stand out in a show ring, take someone through ARC and I also think she could make an exceptional endurance horse.
She has a lovely forward ground covering trot and her canter work so far has a nice bounce as apposed to the usually ‘flat and fast’ initial standardbred canter!
PLEASE NOTE!! Although the above sounds like an absolute dream, Lola is NOT suitable for beginners or novice riders. She is a mare and a very typical mare at that. When I got her off the track she was quite arrogant and pushy, but with ground work and some boundaries set she has become very docile and easily handled by my 10 year old (under supervision) She can be dominant in a paddock and is currently paddocked with two geldings and another mare and sits second in the pecking order. She is bossy with other horses at feed time but is respectful of humans.
She has not shown any signs of biting, kicking etc but she has plenty of sass and will require someone who has experience with mares and happy to keep her in her place. You will see from photos and videos that as she knows her place with me I can do anything.
And that takes me to the best part of her mare attitude. She has shown that she will do anything and give anything a crack for me. She has shown to be a mare that once a relationship is built she will give you her ALL ♥️ horses like this are one in a million!
Lola’s trainer would also like to be kept updated on how she is going and has followed her journey so far so that would be a requirement of sale 😊
Lots of photos and videos available upon request!
