Obviously I must start by his look!
This 3 year old male Lusitano with metallic coat and blue eyes is impossible to miss.
He is 15.1 hands tall with correct conformation, muscle tone and very modern mechanics. Physically build to reach high performance levels. It’s the “show winner” type so he should become very competitive in the ring. He puts him self naturally in a frame, has long stride at all 3 gates and fantastic knee/hack action. His body can do anything.
Adorable character. Comes when called and goes around following people or looking for attention. He is very comfortable and confident with his surroundings, but specially sensitive and smart.
Silas has a great disposition and loves to be told he did something well. At the moment you can see/feel him relax and go on content, proud of himself. He goes where the affection & good vibes go. He thinks/ studies situations by him self making him very easy to teach and educate. The formula for this horse it’s simple: “show him what to do, tell him good boy, done”.
Under saddle does WTC and trails. In the ring, transitioning from voice commands into the leg/ hand aids, learning to take the bit and follow the hand pressure into different frames and bending.
Since the beginning he has been independent and likes to go on auto pilot. Like “Siri” on ur iPhone: listens, recognizes and delivers. The more straightforward you ask, the better.
Example: He learned to go on a frame at the lunge line so he puts him self on the bit and moves forward, rathers you don’t pull on the bit meaningless or interfere with his awesomeness. He is very logical on his brain so plain aids are best. Typical baby, they don’t have the vocabulary to understand long, decorated instructions.
The tendency to want to do all the work him self is like a dream, makes him very enjoyable. He likes to feel self-sufficient but doesn’t anticipate or get anxious/hot to do something he is not being asked to do. Silas enjoys the moment, does as told until told different. He is the horse to sit up and have fun. Light on the hand, forward, soft stride, super comfy to sit, classical, uncomplicated.
He has never had a bad experience, thought, reaction or naughty/fresh moment. Regardless his young age he has proven already to be very safe, caring and kind prioritizing the connexion/bond with his rider. That’s his soul and temperament. Other horses are 13 years old and never stop behaving funny neither a trainer can warranty a horse will become beginner friendly with knowledge of exercises or show ring miles. Some never get there. Horses have each their own personalities.
This horse has been delightful since day 1. With his qualities and brain, he is suitable to just about everyone. He could be brought up to the international levels with a Pro as well as have a career with a student, improving skills and learning from each other.
On the ground he is very respectful, barn favorite. Lives in t/o, does farrier, vacuum, clippers, etc.
His body is in great shape, no injuries or sickness history.
His registration was send out last month so information on his breeding can be shared when we have his papers in hand.
Please contact me if you have any questions or if you would like to come meet us/try him.We are publishing a video soon but can share some short clips now.
