Dressage, Show, Event - Benchmark Dance On

2017 16hh black Hanoverian gelding

Don Dancier x Rotspon/Anamour

 

If you like your horses compact, clever with a natural ability to collect then Digger is the horse for you!

Bred for the dressage ring, Digger boasts an exceptional walk with miles of overtrack, an elegant trot with suspension and cadence and an uphill canter that has plenty of scope to collect for the higher levels.

Digger is established in the Elementary work with his first Elementary start in May for a win. He is sensitive and sharp on the aids with a soft mouth and extremely clever. Although he will excel in the dressage ring, he has attended one jumping clinic in October 2024 where he thoroughly enjoyed himself and showed great technique over a jump. He also loves trail riding alone through our 100 acre property, so could be an eventing prospect.

Digger is easy to worm, shoe, travel and is an exceptionally easy keeper. He is also a rare FNQ horse that doesn't have QLD itch or anhidrosis. He is up to date with his teeth and vaccinations (April 25) and has been on a 5 week farrier roster since he was 18 months old.

Digger is looking for a bold, confident and ambitious rider. He could be the ultimate all-rounder for the astute buyer, whether that be interschool, AOR or a professional. Due to his clever and sharp nature he will not be sold to a nervous rider or someone wanting to learn the ropes. He is in full work and ready to enjoy.
