Rare find! Well-trained Menorcan mare suitable for the whole family (no foal).

This 2014-born Menorquina mare is purebred; however, her breeder did not register her with the breed association at birth due to her minimal white markings, which do not align with his breeding goals. As a result, she has a regular equine passport. This does not diminish her value in any way, but it does make her selling price significantly more affordable compared to a fully registered horse. 

This mare is a versatile all-rounder, so gentle and well-behaved that she can bring joy to the whole family—or be spoiled as a single "princess." She has experience in riding lessons and has also been used as a vaulting horse! She has competed in riding tournaments and earned riding badges, which means she’s familiar with performing her best even in unfamiliar environments. She has been in private ownership for several years, is well cared for, and receives excellent grooming. 

Menorquinas are very intelligent and thrive on having tasks to do. Running in circles with vaulting exercises was too monotonous for her, so she now prefers to be a dedicated riding horse, which makes her much happier. I always record videos lunging her without a saddle so you can see her topline—this is standard for my placement horses. She clearly indicates, “That’s fine, but save your energy.” Under saddle, she truly blossoms: her energy increases, her gaits improve significantly, and she is fully engaged. 

She performs lateral work, passes by other horses with focus on her rider, and is exactly the kind of horse you want. She is very willing to work but not overly strong under the rider, and she adapts very sensitively to whoever is on her back. Therefore, she is ideal for ambitious leisure riders who prefer to work with their horses rather than just turn them in circles. 

In her previous schooling, she was kept 24/7 in a herd in a robust paddock. Since moving to private ownership, she has been stabled. Both management types are well known to her, and her well-groomed, shiny, deep black coat shows how well she is cared for. She is front-shod, goes barefoot behind, and is well-behaved at the blacksmith. She has been calmly loaded since her tournament days and is very social and easy to handle. Even if another horse snorts in the aisle, she simply remains calm and stands quietly. 

In the field, she has mostly been in a group but is also fearless alone, although she finds it a bit more exciting since she’s less used to being alone. Her height is approximately 159 cm, and she presents the elegant type typical of Menorquinas. 

This is a very interesting opportunity to acquire a versatile, sweet mare at an excellent price, especially considering the current situation of Menorquinas!

I am happy to organize an on-site pre-purchase exam, transport, or even her journey if you wish to come and see her in person. Further details are available on my website or in a personal conversation.
