16.2 hands. He last raced in September 2024 and retired with an active medial branch suspensory tear with bone involvement in the ankle, right front.
Hidden gem alert – King is as kind as he is handsome, a real pleasure to have in the barn and to work with. Under saddle, King is forward, willing, uncomplicated, and a nice mover – he would make an excellent partner for an adult amateur dressage rider working with a trainer. He would also be a nice trail partner for group trail rides.
King’s training should progress slowly, focusing on walk/trot and hacking until spring, when canter can be introduced.
King is quiet and sensible. He is not spooky, and we haven’t noticed any vices. He has a soft, kind eye that radiates a soft soul. He is well behaved for grooming and stood well for the vet and farrier. He is quiet in his stall and settles down quickly to graze. He gets along well with his gelding pasture friends.
King will be suitable for flat work, dressage, pleasure riding, trail riding, and second and third flight hunting (non jumping).
