About Rumi
AVAIL FOR ADOPTION
Rumi is a beautiful 12 year old standardbred standing at just over 16.2hh. With his tall & solid build, bright chestnut coat and beautiful face - he catches your eye straight away.
Rumi is great to shoe, tie, rug and float, but can occasionally decide he doesn’t want to be caught - however if you have a carrot in hand he will more than happily oblige and once caught has beautiful ground manners.
Rumi can be in a paddock on his own or with others however he prefers to be the dominant paddock mate and so would be more suited with a laid back friend.
Rumi - although quiet, is still quite green and needs regular work to allow him to continue to take steps forward with his education.
Rumi was professionally broken to saddle in late 2018 but had a year off and recently spent a couple of weeks at trainers to have a refresher.
Due to his previous life on the trotting track Rumi does pace and due to this has not yet established a complete canter (currently does a few strides) so building his confidence is an important part of his learning.
Rumi can be sensitive to leg commands due being green and for this reason MUST be rehomed to a patient and experienced rider that is willing to take the time to define what you ask of him under saddle.
Rumi has not yet been on a trail ride with us but We feel he would enjoy it.
This sweet, sensitive boy thrives when he is getting regular and consistent sessions including lots of ground work and trust exercises.
He is sensitive to his environment and is happiest when in a calm, consistent environment with a confident, kind handler.
Once he has your trust - he will try his heart out for you.
